Problem
The problem gives us a right triangle with a right angle at . Let and be the midpoints of the smaller arcs and of the circumcircle of , and and be the midpoints of the larger arcs and . Let and be the intersection points of segment with lines and , respectively. Prove that .
Fig. 7
Solution
Let be the midpoint of the hypotenuse of triangle (see figure 7). It is clear that is a rectangle with center . Therefore, its sides and are symmetric with respect to . This means that .
