  1. Consider the group of homothety rotation, H(k,x), k represent the scale factor and x represent the anti-clockwise rotational angle.

    Then
    H(1, 90°) map ABC to DBH
    H(sqrt2, 45°) map ABC to EBM
    H(1/sqrt2, 45°) map ABC to O1BO3

    The ratio of line segment is preserved under the group action.

    q.e.d.
