Intercept Theorem

Introduction:

                  Intercept theorem plays a vital role in elementary geometry. It deals with the ratios of various line segments, which are created if two intersecting lines are intercepted by a pair of parallels. This theorem is equivalent to ratios of similar triangles. Traditionally it is attributed. The intercept theorem is  also called as Thale's Theorem. If a transversal line makes equal intercepts on three or more parallel lines, then any other line cutting them will also make equal intercepts.

Concept of Intercept Theorem:

                  If a transversal line makes equal intercepts on three or more parallel lines, then any other line cutting them will also make equal intercepts. AP || BQ || CR.
