Detailed Solution

Given that CD and GH are respectively the bisectors of ACB and  EGF such that D and H lie on sides AB and FE of ∆ ABC and ∆ EFG respectively.
Question ImageAlso, given that ΔABCΔFEG  .
If two triangles are similar, then their corresponding angles are equal.
So,
=F, =E and  ACB =FGE.  
In ΔDCB and Δ HGE,
=E      [proved above]
DCB=HGE    [bisected angles of ACB and EGF]
So, ΔDCB ~ ΔHGE  by AA similarity criteria.
We know that if two triangles are similar, then the ratios of their corresponding sides are in proportion.
Using the property of similar triangles,
CD GH  =  AC FG  
The obtained result is not same as the assertion.
The given statement is false.
So, in the given figure if ΔABCΔFEG   then CD GH  =  AC FG  .
Therefore the correct option is 2.
