Let be a triangle inscribed in circle . Let the tangents to at and intersect at point , and let intersect at . Find , if , , and .
Solution 1
From the tangency condition we have . With LoC we have and . Then, . Using LoC we can find : . Thus, . By Power of a Point, so which gives . Finally, we have .
~angie.
Solution 2
Well know is the symmedian, which implies where is the midpoint of . By Appolonius theorem, . Thus, we have
~Bluesoul
Solution 3
Extend sides and to points and , respectively, such that and are the feet of the altitudes in . Denote the feet of the altitude from to as , and let denote the orthocenter of . Call the midpoint of segment . By the Three Tangents Lemma, we have that and are both tangents to , and since is the midpoint of , . Additionally, by angle chasing, we get that: Also, Furthermore, From this, we see that with a scale factor of . By the Law of Cosines, Thus, we can find that the side lengths of are . Then, by Stewart's theorem, . By Power of a Point, Thus, Therefore, the answer is .
