Problem
In triangle , point
lies on side
and point
lies on side
. Let
and
be points on segments
and
, respectively, such that
is parallel to
. Let
be a point on line
, such that
lies strictly between
and
, and
. Similarly, let
be the point on line
, such that
lies strictly between
and
, and
.
Prove that points , and
are concyclic.
Solution
The essence of the proof is to build a circle through the points and two additional points
and
then we prove that the points
and
lie on the same circle.
We assume that the intersection point of and
lies on the segment
If it lies on segment
then the proof is the same, but some angles will be replaced with additional ones up to
.
Let the circumcircle of be
. Let
and
be the points of intersection of
and
with
. Let
since they intersept the arc
of the circle
.
is cyclic (in circle
)
Let
since they intersept the arc
of the circle
So
is cyclic.
(they intersept the arc
of the circle
(since they intersept the arc
of the circle
Hence the point
lies on
Similarly, point lies on
