Solution

The correct option is C
$B C \cdot D E = A B \cdot E F$

Explanation of correct option,
Option $C$ : $B C \cdot D E = A B \cdot E F$
Given: $Δ A B C ~ Δ E D F$
Thus, $\frac{A B}{E D} = \frac{B C}{D F} = \frac{A C}{E F}$
Considering, $\frac{A B}{E D} = \frac{B C}{D F}$
$\Rightarrow$ $A B \cdot D F = B C \cdot E D$
So, the given statement is not true.
Hence, option $C$ is the correct answer.
Explanation of incorrect option
Option $A$ : $B C \cdot E F = A C \cdot F D$
Considering, $\frac{B C}{D F} = \frac{A C}{E F}$
$\Rightarrow$ $B C \cdot E F = A C \cdot D F$
Which is same as the given statement and hence is true.
Hence, option $A$ is incorrect.
Option $B$ : $A B \cdot E F = A C \cdot D E$
Considering, $\frac{A B}{E D} = \frac{A C}{E F}$
$\Rightarrow$ $A B \cdot E F = A C \cdot E D$
Which is same as the given statement and hence is true.
Hence, option $B$ is incorrect.
Option $D$ : $B C \cdot D E = A B \cdot F D$
Considering, $\frac{B C}{D F} = \frac{A B}{E D}$
$\Rightarrow$ $B C \cdot E D = A B \cdot D F$
Which is same as the given statement and hence is true.
So, option $D$ is incorrect.
Hence, option $C$ is the correct option.
