No problema 53, temos que BM é bissetriz do ângulo CBE. Como ângulo CBM = ângulo DBM, temos que arcoCM = arco MD. Fica provado que M é ponto médio de CD.

ReplyDeleteConnect FH, AE, OAB and OFG
Drawing OM perpendicular to CD. OM will intersect arc CD at midpoint M .
We will prove that M,E,B and G, M, H are collinear
1. Tri. EAB and MOB are isosceles with EA//MO
m(MOB)=m(EAB) (corresponding angles)
m(OMB)=90-1/2m(MOB)
m(ABE)=90-1/2m(EAB)
so m(OMB)=m(ABE) and M, E, B are collinear
2. Similarly with tri. MOG and HFG
With the same logic as step 1 we will prove that G,H,M are collinear.
So GH and BE meet at M , midpoint of arc CD
