5 = 6 (V.O.A.)
ΔCDE ~ ΔABE Using AAA similarity rule
8x + 16 = 4x2 – 2x + 4x – 2
8x + 16 = 4x2 + 2x – 2
4x2 + 2x – 8x – 2 – 16 = 0
4x2 – 6x – 18 = 0
2x2 – 3x – 9 = 0
2 x 2 – 6x + 3x – 9 = 0

To prove : (BC)2 = 2AC. CD
Proof : In ΔBDC, BC2 = BD2 + CD2 (By pythagoras
theorem)
BC2 = (AB2 – AD2) + CD2
In right ΔABD, AB2 = AD2 + BD2 (By pythagoras

BD2 = AB2 – AD2
BC2 = AB2 + CD2 – AD2 = AB2 + (CD – AD)(CD + AD)
= AC2 + (CD – AD)(AC) = AC (AC + CD – AD)
= AC (AC – AD + CD) = AC (CD + CD)
= AC∙2CD = 2CD∙AC. Proved.
