Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the relation [tex]\frac{BX}{XC}=\frac{AB}{AC}[/tex].

We take the reciprocal of the given relation,

i.e. [tex]\frac{BX}{XC}=\frac{AB}{AC}[/tex]

i.e. [tex]\frac{XC}{BX}=\frac{AC}{AB}[/tex].

So, we have that [tex]\frac{BX}{XC}[/tex] ≠ i.e. [tex]\frac{AC}{AB}[/tex].

Hence, the conclusion is wrong.
