Areas of triangles ABO & CBO are proportionals to bases: S1/S2 = AO/CO
ReplyDeleteAreas of triangles ADO & CDO are proportioanls to bases: S3/S4 = CO/AO
Then we've: S1/S2 = S4/S3 or S1·S3 = S2·S4.
Migue.
c.t.e.o has left the following solution of problem 579:
ReplyDeleteDraw BG, DH altitude on AC
AO∙BG = S1, CO∙BG = S2 => S1/S2 = AO/CO
AO∙DH = S3, CO∙DH = S4 => S4/S3 = AO/CO
=>
S1∙S3 = S2∙S4 (Q.E.D.)
S1=1/2.OA.OB.sin(AOB)
ReplyDeleteS2=1/2.OB.OC.sin(BOC)=1/2.OB.OC.sin(180-AOB)=1/2.OB.OC.sin(AOB)
S3=1/2.OC.OD.sin(COD)=1/2.OC.OD.sin(AOB)
S4=1/2.OD.OA.sin(AOD)=1/2.OD.OA.sin(180-AOB)=1/2.OD.OA.sin(AOB)
S1.S3=S2.S4=1/4.sin^2(AOB).OA.OB.OC.OD
Distance from pt. B to line AC =b
ReplyDeleteAnd from pt D to AC =d
Area AOB=1/2 . AO. b
Area COD =1/2 . CO. d
Area AOB. Area COD
=1/2.AO.b.1/2.CO.d
=1/2.AO.d.1/2.CO.b
=Area AOD. Area BOC
S1:S4=OB:OD=S2:S3
