In {tex}\triangle ABC{/tex} , 
{tex}\frac{AD}{DB}=\frac{6}{9}=\frac{2}{3}{/tex} ........... (i)

and {tex}\frac{AE}{EC}=\frac{8}{12}=\frac{2}{3}{/tex} ........... (ii)
From (i) and (ii)
{tex}\frac{AD}{DB}=\frac{AE}{EC}{/tex} 
Hence, {tex}DE\parallel BC{/tex}  [ By converse of basic proportionality theorem, if a line divides any two sides of a triangle in the same ratio, then the line must be parallel to the third side. ]
Hence Proved.
