is a square with side length
and its lateral edge has length a
. Let
be a point inside the pyramid. Consider the five pyramids which are similar to
, whose top vertex is at
and whose bases lie in the planes of the faces of
. Show that the sum of the surface areas of these five pyramids is greater or equal to one fifth the surface of
, and find for which
equality holds.
