It is necessary to prove with Thales theorem that: (AD^2 = AF * AC)

Aight, share your code
What did you write so far?
yeah this isn't really a maths forum but this is a different Thales theorem than I thought
I thought you meant the one involving a circle
No... š¦
I wrote for you something in the dm... š¦
I have them disabled, write it here
please do not use DMs for help
It's not that important... anyway I'm alone now and I'm sad and no one cares how I feel...

please consider seeking help, https://gethelpisrael.com/hotlines/
not for the maths problem obviously, but for how you feel
I cannot begin to understand what you must be going through with everything that's happening, do take care
I have a psychologist
good
Just asking, do you care how I feel?
yes
I clown around online a lot but in the end we're all human beings
I know DM is not allowed, I just wrote you there that I want to share with you what happened
Not really helpful. They just give me a listening ear
I care for your well-being, but I'm not a good listener so I'm afraid I won't be of much help
but hold on tight okay
I just feel a little sad. nothing serious. And look what I wrote you in DM
I'm afraid I don't accept DMs with no context, Mishel, I hope you understand
it's not your fault, I just don't accept DMs from strangers in general
But I'm no longer a stranger to you...

As for your maths problem, look at the example given here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intercept_theorem
1. if
|ED| and |BC| are parallel, what can you say about |AD| and |AC|
2. if |ED| and |BC| are parallel, what can you say about |AE| and |AB|
3. if |EF| and |BD| are parallel, what can you say about |AF| and |AD|
That should be enough information to piece things together, try to give it a shotIntercept theorem
The intercept theorem, also known as Thales's theorem, basic proportionality theorem or side splitter theorem, is an important theorem in elementary geometry about the ratios of various line segments that are created if two rays with a common starting point are intercepted by a pair of parallels. It is equivalent to the theorem about ratios in s...
