Q1.For triangle ADB, angle ADB = 90 degree ( angle in semi-circle).
For triangle ABC, angle ABC = 90 degree ( CB is tangent of circle).
Triangle ADB is similar to triangle ABC (AAA, angle A is common)....(1)
OB = BC (given)
OB = OA (radius of circle)
therefore, AB = OA + OB = 2BC.
Based on result of (1), AD = 2DB = AE + ED = 2ED
so DB = DE.
Therefore, triangle EDB is a right - angled isos. triangle, so
angle DEB = (180 - 90)/2 = 45 degree.

Q2. Triangle BEC similar to triangle ADC (AAA, angle C is common), so angle CBE = angle DAC.......(1). Angle LBC = angle DAC ( angle in same segment), so angle CBE = angle LBC. Therefore, triangle DBL congruent triangle NBD ( ASA, BD is common), so ND = DL.

Q2 cont'd. Angle EAM = angle EBC ( angle in same segment), so angle NAE = angle EAM, so triangle MAE congruent triangle EAN ( ASA), so NE = EM and ND = DL (proved), so DE//LM and LM = 2DE ( mid-point theorem).

2009-08-09 08:35:52 補充:
Q3. Angle CAP = angle CPE and angle DPE = angle PBD ( both reason is angle in alt. segment), so angle CAP + angle PBD = angle CPE + angle DPE = angle CPD.

2009-08-09 08:38:43 補充:
Q3 cont'd. Angle CDP = angle PBD ( angle in alt. seg.). angle PAC + angle CDP = angle DPB ( ext. angle of triangle), so angle DPB = angle CPD, so PD is the angle bisector of angle CPB.

2009-08-09 08:40:29 補充:
Q3 cont'd. Based on the above results, triangle CPD is similar to triangle DPB (AAA). So PC/PD = PD/PB, that is PD^2 = PC x PB.

Q4. Angle AEB = angle ADC = angle BFC = 90 degree ( angle in semi-circle) So BEDF is a rectangle, so EF = DB and bisects each other ( property of rectangle).

2009-08-09 08:56:44 補充:
Q4 cont'd. Let EF intersects BD at M. Since DB is tangent to circle AEB and angle EBM = angle MEB ( property of rectangle), so EM and MB are tangents to circle AEB. Similarly, BM and MF are tangents to circle BFC, so EMF = EF is the common tangent.

2009-08-09 09:00:58 補充:
Q4 cont'd. Angle BEF = angle BDC ( property of rectangle). Angle BDC + angle DCB = 90 degree ( angle sum of triangle DBC). So anfle BEF + angle DCB = 90 degree, so angle BEF + angle DCB + angle AEB = 180 degree. So AEFC is a cyclic quad. ( oppo. angle complement).
