Willy's Lemma
If
be four acute angles such that
and
, then we must have the following :
Proof :
There are many proofs to this :
Proof using trigonometry
Proof using geometry
If




There are many proofs to this :

We must have from the given conditions :

Now from

Thus, we effectively get :

Now, note that
are acute angles means that
and 
Further note that :
function is injective over
and thus, we get
and

Thus, we effectively get,
Thus, the above gives us the following
This completes the solution to the required problem.



Now from





Thus, we effectively get :

Now, note that



Further note that :






Thus, we effectively get,

Apply the general angle bisector theorem, and by the given conditions, we get:


and 



Consider a point




Consider a point




Apply the general angle bisector theorem, and by the given conditions, we get:
