Join B and E. Join A and E. angle BAE = angle BED (angles subtended by equal arcs) angle EAC = angle CBE (angles subtended by the same arc) Hence angle BAE + angle EAC = angle BED + angle CBE But angle BED + angle CBE = angle BGF (exterior angle of triangle GBE = sum of interior opposite angles) Hence angle BAE + angle EAC = angle BGF That is angle angle FAC = angle BGF Hence quadrilateral FACG is cyclic. Hence A, F, G and C are concyclic.
Solution to Problem 67. In the circle circunscribed to ABC, ang(AFC) = (arc AC + arc BD)/2 and ang(AGC) = (arc AC + arc BE)/2. But arc BD = arc BE, so ang(AFC) = ang(AGC). These two angles subtend the same arc AC, thus AFGC is cyclic. In the circle circunscribed to AFGC, we have ang(CAG) = ang(CFG) because both subtend the same arc(CG).
Let PB be the tangent at B to the circumcircle of ΔABC(such that P, D lie on the same side of AB). Join BD, BE. ∠PBD =∠BED (angle in the alternate segment) =∠BDE (since BD = BE) So PB ∥ DE. Now ∠BFG =∠PBF (alternate angles) =∠PBA =∠BCA (angle in the alternate segment) Hence AFGC is a cyclic quadrilateral etc.
Draw BD and BE; BD=BE ang(BDE)=ang(DEB)=a ; ang(EBG)=b => ang(FGB)=a+b => ang (FGC)=180-a-b ang(FAC)=angBAC)=ang(BDE)+ang(EBC)=a+b => ACGF is concyclic ang(GFC) and ang(GAC) on the same arc. => ang(GFC)=ang(GAC)
Let BT be the tangent in B of the circumcircle of ABC. B is the center of arc DE, therefore BT//DE Then, applying Reim’s reciprocal theorem, A,C,G,F are concyclic.

ReplyDeleteangle BAE = angle BED (angles subtended by equal arcs)
angle EAC = angle CBE (angles subtended by the same arc)
Hence angle BAE + angle EAC = angle BED + angle CBE
But angle BED + angle CBE = angle BGF (exterior angle of triangle GBE = sum of interior opposite angles)
Hence angle BAE + angle EAC = angle BGF
That is angle angle FAC = angle BGF
Hence quadrilateral FACG is cyclic.
Hence A, F, G and C are concyclic.
