GF = 1/2 AB ( as middle line of OAB ) (1)
ReplyDeleteGF // AB
DE = 1/2 AB ( as middle line of ACB ) (2)
DE // AB
from (1) & (2)
GF = De, GF // DE
at the same way
GD = EF, GD // EF
it easy FGDE rombhus
FGDE is a parallelogram per C.t.e.o comment not rhombus.
ReplyDeleteTo Peter
ReplyDeleteIt is necessary to be rhombus
OAB equilateral => OC = AB => GD = DE = EF = GF
It is OK
ReplyDeleteMidpoints of a quadrilateral connected together always form a parallelogram. But the two diagonals of Quadrilateral ACBO are equal. (Connect OC, revealing OC=OA=OB. Connect AB, revealing Equilateral OAB, so OC=AB.) Quadrilateral ACBO is a rhombus.
ReplyDeleteTherefore, DF is perpendicular to EG.
