DEC =60° ( DEC equilateral )
ReplyDeletein EGD, DEG = 60°, EDG = 30° ( ADG = 60° - 45°)
=> EGD = 90°
in EGD, EO, DO bisector ( O center, ODE = 60 - 45° )
=> GO bisector
=> OGD = 45°
=> DOG = 180° - ( 45° + 15°)
=> DOG = 120°
DOC=90deg, DGC=90deg ---> DCG+GOD=180deg.
ReplyDeleteDCG=60deg ---> DOG=120deg
Tr.s AFD & CDE are equilateral
ReplyDeleteSo < FDC = 30
Tr.s BFD & BED are congruent
So < ODF = 15 = < GCO
Hence ODCG is concyclic
So < GOC = < GDC = 30
Implies < GOD = 120

Connect DE and observe that DEC is an equilateral triangle
ReplyDeleteConnect AE and BE and observe that AED congruent with BEC (SAS) => AE=BE
=> BED is congruent to AEC (SSS)
=> m(ECA)=m(BDE)
=> m(GCO)=m(GDO)
=> G,O,D,C are conyclic and since m(GCD)=60 => m(GOD)=120
