Given, in △ ABC, DE∥BC
∴ AD/DB = AE/EC [Using Basic proportionality theorem]
⇒1.5/3 = 1/EC
⇒EC = 3/1.5
EC = 3×10/15 = 2 cm
Hence, EC = 2 cm.
(ii) Given, in △ ABC, DE∥BC
∴ AD/DB = AE/EC [Using Basic proportionality theorem]
⇒ AD/7.2 = 1.8 / 5.4
⇒ AD = 1.8 ×7.2/5.4 = (18/10)×(72/10)×(10/54) = 24/10
⇒ AD = 2.4
Hence, AD = 2.4 cm.
