In a triangle ABC, median BD is such that angles A and DBC are equal. If angle ADB is 45 degrees, prove that the measure of angle
A is 30 degrees. Try to use elementary geometry (Euclid's Elements.)
Geometry problem solving is one of the most challenging skills for students to learn. When a problem requires auxiliary construction,
the difficulty of the problem increases drastically, perhaps because deciding which construction to make is an ill-structured problem.
By “construction,” we mean adding geometric figures (points, lines, planes) to a problem figure that wasn’t mentioned as "given."

Geometry Help: Proposed Problem 40. Level: High School, SAT Prep, College
DEFINITION 1. Angle is the figure formed by two rays with a common end point.
Congruent angles are angles that have the exact same measure (the same number of degrees).
Angle Bisector is a ray that divides the angle into two congruent adjacent angles.
DEFINITION 2. Triangle is a three side polygon. Polygon is a closed plane figure with n sides. Altitude is the perpendicular line
segment from one vertex to the line that contains the opposite side.
PROPOSITION 1. The sum of the measures of the three angles of a triangle is 180.
PROPOSITION 2. The measure of an exterior angle of a triangle equals the sum of the measures of the two non-adjacent interior angles.
PROPOSITION 3. The sum of the measures of the acute angles of a right triangle is 90 (complementary).
PROPOSITION 4. Triangle Congruence A.S.A. If two angles and the included side of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding
parts of another, then the triangles are congruent.
PROPOSITION 5. Any point on the bisector of an angle is equidistant from the sides of the angle. Also converse
PROPOSITION 6. Triangle Congruence S.A.S. If two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding
parts of another, then the triangles are congruent.
PROPOSITION 7. Isosceles triangle: If two sides of a triangle are congruent, the angles opposite these sides are congruent. Also
converse.
DEFINITION 3. Circle is the set of all points in a plane that are at the same distance from a fixed point called the center.
Tangent of a circle is a line that touches the circle at one and only one point no matter how far produced.
PROPOSITION 9. If a line is tangent to a circle, it is perpendicular to a radius at the point of tangency.
PROPOSITION 10. The bisectors AD, BF and CE of the angles of a triangle ABC meet in a point I, which is equidistant from the sides of
the triangle.
The incircle is the inscribed circle of a triangle. The center of the incircle is called the incenter, and the radius of the circle is called the
inradius.
PROPOSITION 11. An excircle of the triangle is a circle lying outside the triangle, tangent to one of its sides and tangent to the
extensions of the other two.
The center of an excircle is the intersection of the internal bisector of one angle and the external bisectors of the other two.
The center of an excircle is called the excenter, and the radius of the circle is called the exradius.
DEFINITION 4. A cyclic quadrilateral is a quadrilateral whose vertices all lie on a single circle.
PROPOSITION 14.1 Opposite angles of a cyclic (inscribed) quadrilateral are supplementary. Also converse.
PROPOSITION 14.2 A quadrilateral is cyclic if one side subtends congruent angles at the two opposite vertices. Also converse.
DEFINITION 5. Similar Triangles are triangles whose corresponding angles are congruent and whose corresponding sides are in
proportion.
PROPOSITION 15. Triangle Similarity AA. If two angles of one triangle are congruent to two angles of another triangle, the two
triangles are similar.

Let C be any point on a semicircle of diameter AB, and let CD be perpendicular to AB.
Take E on AB so that AD = DE. Take F on arc CB so that arc CF = arc AC. Prove BF = BE.
Let C be any point on a semicircle of diameter AB, and let CD be perpendicular to AB. If semicircles be described within the first
semicircle and having AD and DB as diameters respectively, the figure included between the circumferences of the three semicircles
is "what Archimedes called arbelos". Then the area of the arbelos is the same as the area of the circle with diameter CD.

Geometry problem solving is one of the most challenging skills for students to learn. When a problem requires auxiliary construction,
the difficulty of the problem increases drastically, perhaps because deciding which construction to make is an ill-structured problem.
By “construction,” we mean adding geometric figures (points, lines, planes) to a problem figure that wasn’t mentioned as "given."

Geometry problem solving is one of the most challenging skills for students to learn. When a problem requires auxiliary construction,
the difficulty of the problem increases drastically, perhaps because deciding which construction to make is an ill-structured problem.
By “construction,” we mean adding geometric figures (points, lines, planes) to a problem figure that wasn’t mentioned as "given.

The Elements: Books I-XIII (Barnes & Noble Library of Essential Reading)
Euclid's Elements is a fundamental landmark of mathematical achievement. Firstly, it is a compendium of the principal mathematical
work undertaken in classical Greece, for which in many cases no other source survives. Secondly, it is a model of organizational clarity
which has had a deep influence on the way almost all subsequent mathematical research has been conducted. Thirdly, it is the most
successful textbook ever written, only seriously challenged as an account of elementary geometry in the nineteenth century, more than
two thousand years after its first publication.
Euclid reportedly lived some time between the death of Plato (427-347 BC) and the birth of Archimedes (287-212 BC). He most likely
learned mathematics at Plato's Academy in Athens and taught at Alexandria in Egypt. Scholars believe Euclid was hired as one of the
original faculty at a school of advanced study, patterned after those in Athens, and known as the Museum.

Online Geometry Problem 826: Brianchon's Theorem, Circumscribed Hexagon, Concurrent Diagonals. Level: High School,
College, Mathematics Education
The diagonals of a hexagon ABCDEF circumscribing a conic (particular a circle) are concurrent at G.
Charles Brianchon (1783-1864) was a French mathematician and chemist. He entered into the École Polytechnique in 1804 at the age of eighteen, and studied under Monge, graduating first in his class in 1808, after which he took
up a career as a lieutenant in Napoleon's artillery.
