Ta có: \(\dfrac{a}{b}=\dfrac{b}{c}=\dfrac{c}{d}=\dfrac{a+b+c}{b+c+d}\)
\(\Rightarrow\dfrac{a}{b}=\dfrac{a+b+c}{b+c+d}\)
\(\dfrac{b}{c}=\dfrac{a+b+c}{b+c+d}\)
\(\dfrac{c}{d}=\dfrac{a+b+c}{b+c+d}\)
\(\Rightarrow\dfrac{a}{b}.\dfrac{b}{c}.\dfrac{c}{d}=\dfrac{a+b+c}{b+c+d}.\dfrac{a+b+c}{b+c+d}.\dfrac{a+b+c}{b+c+d}\)
\(\Rightarrow\dfrac{a}{d}=\left(\dfrac{a+b+c}{b+c+d}\right)^3\rightarrowđpcm\)
Áp dụng tính chất dãy tỉ số bằng nhau ta có:
\(\dfrac{a}{b}=\dfrac{b}{c}=\dfrac{c}{d}=\dfrac{a+b+c}{b+c+d}=\left(\dfrac{a+b+c}{b+c+d}\right)^3\left(1\right)\)
Từ \(\dfrac{a}{b}=\dfrac{b}{c}=\dfrac{c}{d}\)
Ta xét tích: \(\dfrac{a}{b}.\dfrac{a}{b}.\dfrac{a}{b}=\dfrac{a}{b}.\dfrac{b}{c}.\dfrac{c}{d}=\dfrac{a}{d}\left(2\right)\)
Từ (1) và (2) \(\Rightarrow\left(\dfrac{a+b+c}{b+c+d}\right)=\dfrac{a}{d}\left(dpcm\right)\)
