Squares on height in right triangle
Miquel-point   0
2 hours ago
Source: Romanian NMO 2025 7.4
Consider the right-angled triangle $ABC$ with $\angle A$ right and $AD\perp BC$, $D\in BC$. On the ray $[AD$ we take two points $E$ and $H$ so that $AE=AC$ and $AH=AB$. Consider the squares $AEFG$ and $AHJI$ containing inside $C$ and $B$, respectively. If $K=EG\cap AC$ and $L=IH\cap AB$, $N=IL\cap GK$ and $M=IB\cap GC$, prove that $LK\parallel BC$ and that $A$, $N$ and $M$ are collinear.

From a point $O$ inside a square $ABCD$ we raise a segment $OS$ perpendicular to the plane of the square. Show that the projections of $O$ on the planes $(SAB)$, $(SBC)$, $(SCD)$ and $(SDA)$ are coplanar if and only if $O\in [AC]\cup [BD]$.

First find $a$ from the first equation, then note that Area of ABCD = \( ABD + BCD = \sqrt{3} + a \sqrt{3} \)

\( Ar(AEFD) = \frac{AD + EF}{2} \cdot \frac{h}{2} = AD + \frac{AD+BC}{2} )* \frac{h}{2} = (3AD + BC)*\frac{h}{4} \)
\( Ar(EBCF)= (3BC + AD)*\frac{h}{4} \)

$\frac{Ar(AEFD)}{Ar(EBCF)}=\frac{3AD + BC}{3BC + AD}=\frac{AD\cdot(3+a)}{AD\cdot(3a+1)}$
