Determine …Open2A rectangle \(ABCD\) has \(|AB| = 2a\) and \(|AD| = a\). Let \(E\) be the midpoint of the side \(AB\), and choose an arbitrary point \(F\) on the side \(AD\). The area of the triangle \(ECF\) depends on …3An equilateral triangle \(ACG\), a regular pentagon \(CDEFG\) and a regular octagon \(BHIJKLDC\) all meet at the point \(C\), as shown in the figure. Determine the angles of the triangle \(ABC\).4Two concentric circles of radii \(7\) cm and \(11\) cm are drawn in the plane. The smaller circle cuts a chord of the larger circle into three pieces of equal length. How long is that chord?5The rhombus \(ABCD\) has an acute interior angle at the vertex \(A\). The perpendicular dropped from \(D\) to the side \(AB\) meets it at the point \(E\), which splits the side into the two pieces \[ |AE| = x , \qquad |EB| = y . \] …6In the right triangle \(ABC\) the right angle is at \(C\), and \(|AC| = 4\), \(|BC| = 8\). A point \(D\) is taken on the side \(BC\) so that \(|CD| = 5\). How far is \(D\) from the side \(AB\)?7The equilateral triangle \(ABC\) has sides of length \(4\) cm. Let \(D\) be the midpoint of the side \(AB\), and let \(E\) and \(F\) be the feet of the perpendiculars dropped from \(D\) to the sides \(BC\) …8Let \(M\) be the midpoint of the side \(BC\) and \(N\) the midpoint of the side \(CD\) of a rectangle \(ABCD\). Determine the ratio of the side lengths of \(ABCD\), given that \(AMN\) is a right triangle …9The figure shows two squares and two congruent circles whose centres lie on a diagonal of the larger square. The smaller square occupies a corner of the larger one, and the diagonal in question runs from …10A rectangle \(ABCD\) satisfies \(|AB| = 10\) and \(|AC| = 5\sqrt{7}\). Let \(M\) be the midpoint of the side \(AB\). Inside the rectangle we draw the semicircle with diameter \(AB\) and the triangle \(CDM\), …11A circle of radius \(\sqrt{2}\) is given. A second circle, of radius \(2\), has its centre on the first circle. Find the area of the shaded region, that is, of the part of the smaller disc that lies outside …12In the right triangle \(ABC\) the right angle is at \(C\), the hypotenuse \(AB\) measures \(1\) dm, and \(\angle BAC = 30^\circ\). A point \(D\) inside the triangle satisfies \[ \angle BDC = 90^\circ \qquad\text{and}\qquad \angle ACD = \angle DBA . \] …13Grandmother cut a round pizza into \(6\) equilateral triangles and \(6\) circular segments, as in the picture. Each of her \(6\) grandchildren ate one triangle. The grandchildren do not like the crust, …14Let \(ABCD\) be a quadrilateral and let \(K\) be a point inside triangle \(ABD\) such that triangles \(ABD\) and \(KCD\) are similar, the vertices corresponding in the written order. Prove that triangles …15In triangle \(ABC\) the sides satisfy \(|AB| = 2|AC|\). A point \(D\) is chosen on side \(AB\) and a point \(E\) on side \(BC\) so that \(\angle BAE = \angle ACD\). The segments \(AE\) and \(CD\) intersect …16Alenka and Barbara order a pizza. Two straight cuts, perpendicular to each other and neither of them passing through the centre of the pizza, divide it into four pieces. Alenka takes one piece first, then …17In the isosceles right triangle \(ABC\) the right angle is at \(C\) and each leg has length \(2\). A circular arc \(\ell\) centred at \(A\) divides the triangle into two parts of equal area, and a circular …18Let \(ABC\) be an isosceles triangle with apex \(C\). Points \(D\) and \(E\) lie on the sides \(AC\) and \(BC\) respectively, and the bisector of the angle \(\angle DEB\) and the bisector of the angle …19The incircle of a triangle \(ABC\) touches the sides \(AB\) and \(AC\) at the points \(D\) and \(E\) respectively. Let \(F\) be any point of the side \(AB\) lying between \(A\) and \(D\), and let \(G\) …20Farmer Martin has made \(3\) identical bales of hay. The cross-section of each bale is a circle of radius \(r\). He stacks the bales into a pyramid, each bale touching the other two, and stretches a rope …
