请制作一个本道题目的讲解视频---**Question Number:** 6
**Question Stem:**
如图,在三棱柱 ABC - A₁B₁C₁ 中,E,F 分别是 AB,AC 上的点,且 AE:EB = AF:FC,则 EF 与 B₁C₁ 的位置关系是 止 || B₁C₁.
**Mathematical Formulas/Equations:**
AE:EB = AF:FC
**Chart/Diagram Description:**
* **Type:** Three-dimensional geometric figure, specifically a triangular prism.
* **Main Elements:**
* **Vertices:**
* Bottom base vertices: A (front-left), B (front-right), C (back-right).
* Top base vertices: A₁ (directly above A), B₁ (directly above B), C₁ (directly above C).
* **Edges:**
* Vertical edges connecting the bases: AA₁, BB₁, CC₁.
* Edges of the bottom base: AB, BC, AC (AC is shown as a dashed line, indicating it's a hidden edge).
* Edges of the top base: A₁B₁, B₁C₁, A₁C₁.
* **Points:**
* E is a point located on the edge AB.
* F is a point located on the edge AC.
* **Lines/Segments:**
* Segment EF is drawn, connecting points E and F. It is represented by a dashed line, implying it lies on a plane or is hidden from a certain perspective.
* The problem refers to the relationship between segment EF and edge B₁C₁.
* **Relative Position and Direction:**
* The prism has a triangular base ABC at the bottom and A₁B₁C₁ at the top.
* Points E and F are on the edges AB and AC, respectively, both belonging to the bottom face ABC.
* Segment EF lies within the plane of the bottom base ABC.
* Edge B₁C₁ is part of the top base A₁B₁C₁.
