(a) Find the length of AG
(b) Show that AC//EG. Hence find the area of triangleAEG
Figure 5 shows a right-angled triangleABC with AB=3, BC=4 and CA=5. Starting from B, perpendiculars are drawn to AC and BC alternatively. The feet of perpendiculars on AC are labelled X1, X2, X3, X4, ... while those on BC are labelled Y1, Y2, Y3, Y4, ... The triangles with a side lying on BC are then shaded.

(a) Show that triangleAX1B and triangleBY1X1 are both similar to triangleABC
(b) Find the area of triangleBX1Y1
(c) Find the sum of the areas of all the shaded triangles, assuming that the process of drawing perpendiculars goes on infinitely
