Answer:
The correct statements are;
1) ΔBCD is similar to ΔBSR
2) BR/RD = BS/SC
3) (BR)(SC) = (RD)(BS)
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Since RS is parallel to DC, we conclude that;
∠BDC = ∠BRS (Angles formed on the same side of the transversal)
Furthermore;
∠BCD = ∠BSR (Angles formed on the same side of the transversal)
∠CBD = ∠CBD (Reflexive property)
Thus;
ΔBCD ~ ΔBSR by the Angle-Angle-Angle (AAA) similarity criterion.
2) Given that ΔBCD ~ ΔBSR, we obtain;
BC/BS = BD/BR → (BS + SC)/BS = (BR + RD)/BR = 1 + SC/BS = RD/BR + 1
1 + SC/BS = 1 + RD/BR thus, SC/BS = 1 + BR/RD - 1
SC/BS = RD/BR
By inverting both sides we find;
BR/RD = BS/SC
3) From BR/RD = BS/SC, we apply cross multiplication;
BR/RD = BS/SC leads to;
BR × SC = RD × BS → (BR)(SC) = (RD)(BS).
