Problem
Given a circle with ceneter and an inscribed trapezium
with
. If
is a point of arc
on which
and
do not belong to, and
and
are the projections of
on the lines
,
,
, and
respectively, show that:
(i) The circumscribed circles of the triangles and
intersect on the side
.
(ii) The points and
are concyclic.
(iii) If ,
and the distance between the parallel chords is
find all the points of the axis of symmetry of the trapezium
that can `see'* at right angle the non parallel sides and calculate their distance form
and
in terms of
,
and
.
Examinate if such pints always exist. \newline
(Draw a separate diagram for part (iii)).
*An example what I mean: In any cyclic quadrilateral the point
and
`see' the side
at the same angle.
