((AE)/(BE))=((CF)/(DF))=(1/k), say  ((ΔBCF)/(ΔBDF))=((CF)/(DF))=(1/k)  ⇒k(S_1 +S_3 )=ΔDBF   ...(i)  ((ΔDAE)/(ΔDBE))=((AE)/(BE))=(1/k)  ⇒k(S_2 +S_6 )=ΔDBE   ...(ii)  (i)+(ii):  k(S_1 +S_3 +S_2 +S_6 )=ΔDBF+ΔDBE  ⇒k(S_1 +S_3 +S_2 +S_6 )=S+S_4 +S_5    ...(iii)  similarly  ⇒S_1 +S_5 +S_2 +S_4 =k(S+S_3 +S_6 )   ...(iv)  (iii)+(iv):  k(S_1 +S_3 +S_2 +S_6 )+S_1 +S_5 +S_2 +S_4 =S+S_4 +S_5 +k(S+S_3 +S_6 )  (k+1)(S_1 +S_2 )=(k+1)S  ⇒S=S_1 +S_2  ✓
