C o n s i d e r space t h e space f o l o w i n g space f i g u r e.
G v i e n space t h a t space B C squared equals A C cross times C D rightwards double arrow fraction numerator B C over denominator C D end fraction equals fraction numerator A C over denominator B C end fraction... left parenthesis 1 right parenthesis A n d space a n g l e space angle C space i s space c o m m o n space t o space b o t h space t h e space t r i a n g l e s space triangle A B C space a n d space triangle B D C
