With the given data is it possible to prove that BD bisects /_B ? Easy to do this by trigonometry but how do we do it by plane geometry alone?
ReplyDeleteOf course, this makes x=15 deg.
Vihaan
draw DBM = x => BM = a, get AH = a + d , H on AC
ReplyDelete=> CH = DM => HM = d => MA = a => MBA = 2x, B = 6x
=> x = 15°
To c.t.e.o
ReplyDeleteIt not clear to me why CH=DM in your solution. Please explain.
Peter Tran
geting AH = a + d give us ang HBC = x
ReplyDeletedrawing DBM = x => ▲DMB = ▲HBC
(BM = BC = a, MCB = CMB, MBD = CBH = x : ASA )
In triangle MBC altitude is bisector, giving BM = a
To: c.t.o.e.
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice soluion, well done!

ReplyDeleteThanks
If BG is altitude of ABC than BG is median of MBC,DBH
=> MD = HC as diferences of equal parts
( I liked your solution of P 167 )
