Problem C. 1094. (October 2011)

C. 1094. In an isosceles right-angled triangle ABC, H is the point closer to C that divides the leg BC in a 3:1 ratio. G is the point on leg CA such that CG:GA=3:2. Find the measure of the angle enclosed by the line segments HA and GB.

Sorry, the solution is available only in Hungarian. Google translation

Megoldás. Legyen \(\displaystyle GBC\sphericalangle = \beta\) és \(\displaystyle AHC\sphericalangle = \gamma\), a keresett szög pedig \(\displaystyle \varphi=\gamma - \beta\). A szokásos módon jelöljük az oldalakat. Ekkor \(\displaystyle \tan \beta = \frac{\frac 35 b}{a}=\frac 35\), \(\displaystyle \tan \gamma = \frac{b}{\frac 14 a}=4\) szerint

\(\displaystyle \tan\varphi=\tan(\gamma - \beta)=\frac{4-\frac 35}{1+4\cdot \frac 35}=1.\)

A \(\displaystyle HA\) és \(\displaystyle GB\) által bezárt szög \(\displaystyle 45^\circ\).
