  1. Problem 1250
    Is BE perpendicular in AC and CG is perpendicular in BG.But <BEC=90=<BGC so BEGC is
    cyclic ie <GEC=<GBC=<DBC=<DAC so EG//AD therefore EGHF is trapezoid.Βut ABEF and CGHD are cyclic, then <EFH=<ABE=<90-<BAE=90-<BAC=90-<BDC=90-<GDC=<GCD=<GHF.
    So FEGH is isosceles trapezoid. Therefore EH=FG.

  2. BCGE is a cyclic quadrilateral with diameter BC.
    So <GEC = <GBC = < DAC and so EG//FH

    Further < GHC = <GDC = <BAC = < BFE so < EFH = < GHF

    Hence EFHG is an isoceles trapezoid with = diagonals, EH = FG
