Answer:

(A)60

(B)Triangle Proportionality theorem

(C)100

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle Proportionality theorem

If a line parallel to one side of a triangle intersects the other two sides of the triangle, then the line divides these two sides proportionally.

By this theorem, In the given triangle ABC,

[tex]\dfrac{|AD|}{|DB|}=\dfrac{|CE|}{|EB|} \\\dfrac{32}{48}=\dfrac{40}{|EB|} \\|EB| X 32 =40 X 48\\|EB|=40 X 48 \div 32\\|EB|=60 \:Units[/tex]

|BC|=|EB|+|CE|

=60+40

|BC|=100 Units

Therefore:

The measure of EB is 60 units by the Triangle Proportionality theorem. Thus, BC must measure 100 units.
