In a trapezium $ABCD$, the sides $AB$ and $CD$ are parallel and the angles $\angle ABC$ and $\angle BAD$ are acute. Show that it is possible to divide the triangle $ABC$ into 4 disjoint triangle $X_1. . . , X_4$ and the triangle $ABD$ into 4 disjoint triangles $Y_1,. . . , Y_4$ such that the triangles $X_i$ and $Y_i$ are congruent for all $i$.

Dear Sqing: So Many Inequalities...

N 2 hours ago by ohiorizzler1434
I have noticed thousands upon thousands of inequalities that you have posted to HSO and was wondering where you get the inspiration, imagination, and even the validation that such inequalities are true? Also, what do you find particularly appealing and important about specifically inequalities rather than other branches of mathematics? Thank you :)

Problem. Given $a,b,c$ be non-negative real numbers such that $ab+bc+ca=1.$ Prove that

$$\sqrt{a+1}+\sqrt{b+1}+\sqrt{c+1}\le 1+2\sqrt{a+b+c+abc}.$$

Given a fixed circle $\omega$ with its center $O$. There are two fixed points $B, C$ and one moving point $A$ on $\omega$. The midpoint of the line segment $BC$ is $M$. $R$ is a fixed point on $\omega$. Line $AO$ intersects$\odot(AMR)$ at $P(\ne A)$, and line $BP$ intersects $\odot(BOC)$ at $Q(\ne B)$.

Find all the fixed points $R$ such that $\omega$ is always tangent to $\odot (OPQ)$ when $A$ varies.

Pascal on hexagon $XYCWZD$ gives that $XY \cap WZ \in AB$
(i probably missed something cus i didn't use the trapezoid condition

My proposal, though I doubt it's truly original. My solution is the same as @above's.

Same as @above's:

It is suffice to show that $A, B, W, Z$, and $A, B, Y, X$ are concyclic, respectively. This is proved by\[
\measuredangle AWZ
=\measuredangle CWZ
=\measuredangle CDZ
=\measuredangle CDB
=\measuredangle ABD
\]and same for $A, B, Y, X$.
