Problem
Triangle with right angle at
,
and
. Point
on $\overbar{AB}$ (Error compiling LaTeX. Unknown error_msg) is chosen such that
and
. The ratio
can be represented in the form
, where
,
,
are positive integers and
is not divisible by the square of any prime. Find
.
Solution
Let be the circumcenter of
and let the intersection of
with the circumcircle be
. It now follows that
. Hence
is isosceles and
.
Denote the projection of
onto
. Now
. By the pythagorean theorem,
. Now note that
. By the pythagorean theorem,
. Hence it now follows that,
This gives that the answer is .
