Solution:-
(i) We have to find the ratios AD/AB, DE/BC,
From the question it is given that, AD/DB = 3/2
Then, DB/AD = 2/3
Now add 1 for both LHS and RHS we get,
(DB/AD) + 1 = (2/3) + 1
(DB + AD)/AD = (2 + 3)/3
From the figure (DB + AD) = AB
So, AB/AD = 5/3
Now, consider the ∆ADE and ∆ABC,
∠ADE = ∠B … [corresponding angles are equal]
∠AED = ∠C … [corresponding angles are equal]
Therefore, ∆ADE ~ ∆ABC … [by AA similarity]
Then, AD/AB = DE/BC = 3/5
(ii) Now consider the ∆DEF and ∆CBF
∠EDF = ∠BCF … [because alternate angles are equal]
∠DEF = ∠FBC … [because alternate angles are equal]
∠DFE = ∠ABFC … [because vertically opposite angles are equal]
Therefore, ∆DEF ~ ∆CBF
So, EF/FB = DE/BC = 3/5
(iii) we have to find the ratio of the areas of ∆DEF and ∆CBF,
We know that, Area of ∆DFE/Area of ∆BFC = DE2/BC2
Area of ∆DFE/Area of ∆BFC = (DE/BC)2
Area of ∆DFE/Area of ∆BFC = (3/5)2
Area of ∆DFE/Area of ∆BFC = 9/25
Therefore, the ratio of the areas of ∆DEF and ∆CBF is 9: 25.
