Given: ABCD is a ∥-gram, BF ⊥ CD , BE ⊥ AD, Prove: △ABE∼△CBF

Hence proved △ABE∼△CBF.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

ABCD is a parallelogram.

BF ⊥ CD    and

BE ⊥ AD

To Prove : △ABE∼△CBF

We have drawn the diagram for your reference.

Proof:

Since ABCD is a parallelogram,

So according to the property of parallelogram opposite angles are equal in measure.

⇒1

And given that BF ⊥ CD and BE ⊥ AD.

So we can say that;

⇒2

Now In △ABE and △CBF

∠A = ∠C   (from 1)

∠E = ∠F    (from 2)

So by A.A. similarity postulate;

△ABE∼△CBF
