ReplyDeleteLet BO meet AC at P and circle O at Q
Since ABC is equilateral , ^(AOC)=120 => P is the midpoint of OQ
Per the result of problem 1433 we have
BN=2.PF and BM=2.PD
So BM+BN=2(PF+PD)=2.DF
Trough BO, make diameter BH, H on circomference,intersect with AC at K,
ReplyDeleteFrom 1433, BN= 2 KF,
BM=2DK,
so BM+BN= 2(DF)
