The equivalent proportions are I, II, and N.

Solución

We start with the given proportion:   A/B = C/D By cross multiplication, we have:   A·D = B·C Now, let’s analyze each candidate proportion: 1. Proportion I: D/B = C/A   Cross multiplying gives: D·A = B·C   This is identical to A·D = B·C, so I is equivalent. 2. Proportion II: A/C = B/D   Cross multiplying gives: A·D = C·B   Again, this is exactly what we have (A·D = B·C), so II is equivalent. 3. Proportion III: A/B = D/C   Cross multiplying gives: A·C = B·D   This equation is generally not equivalent to A·D = B·C unless A = C or B = D. Thus, III is not equivalent. 4. Proportion N: B/A = D/C   Cross multiplying gives: B·C = A·D   This is the same as A·D = B·C, so N is equivalent. Thus, the equivalent proportions are I, II, and N.

To determine which of the given options are equivalent to the proportion \( \frac{A}{B} = \frac{C}{D} \), let's analyze each one. 1. Transform the original proportion: From \( \frac{A}{B} = \frac{C}{D} \), we can cross-multiply to get \( A \cdot D = B \cdot C \). 2. Now check each option: - **I. \( \frac{D}{B} = \frac{C}{A} \)** - Cross-multiplying gives \( D \cdot A = B \cdot C \), which is equivalent and true. - **II. \( \frac{A}{C} = \frac{B}{D} \)** - Cross-multiplying gives \( A \cdot D = B \cdot C \), which is equivalent and true. - **III. \( \frac{A}{B} = \frac{D}{C} \)** - Cross-multiplying gives \( A \cdot C = B \cdot D \), which is the inverse and not equivalent. - **N. \( \frac{B}{A} = \frac{D}{C} \)** - This is just the reciprocal of III, which also does not hold since \( B \cdot C \neq A \cdot D \). So the options that are equivalent are I and II only. Thus, the correct answer is: I, II only.
