Problem C. 832. (December 2005)

C. 832. Given are the points A(2,1), B(3,4), C(2,11) on the cartesian plane, show that the ray OB bisects the angle AOC.

(5 pont)

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

Megoldás:

OB\capAC=P(2;8/3)

{OC\over OA}={\sqrt{4+121}\over{\sqrt{4+1}}}=5

{PC\over PA}={25/3\over5/3}=5

Vagyis {OC\over OA}={PC\over PA}, tehát OP (vagyis OB) az ACO háromszögben az AOC\measuredangle szögfelezője.
