Correct option is (C) CE/ED
In \(\triangle BCD,\) EF || DB
\(\therefore\) \(\triangle CEF\sim\triangle CDB\) (Corresponding angles are equal as EF ||DB)
\(\therefore\) \(\frac{CE}{CD}=\frac{CF}{CB}\) (By properties of similar triangles)
\(\Rightarrow\) \(\frac{CE}{CD-CE}=\frac{CF}{CB-CF}\) \((If\,\frac ab=\frac cd\,then\,\frac a{b-a}=\frac c{d-c})\)
\(\Rightarrow\) \(\frac{CE}{ED}=\frac{CF}{FB}\)
Hence, \(\frac{CF}{FB}\) = \(\frac{CE}{ED}\)
Correct option is: (C) \(\frac{CE}{ED}\)
