Since is an external angle of the isosceles triangle with the apex (see the picture), a line is parallel to a bisectrix of the angle .

Fig. 4
The ratio yields, that the bisectrix of meets the centroid of the triangle . If we denote its median and its intersection with the bisectrix of then we obtain
from similarity of the triangles (by A-A). So the point divides the median in the same ratio as the centroid and therefore it is the centroid of the triangle .
It follows from the symmetry of the problem, that bisectrix of the angle meets the centroid of the triangle . And the fact, that intersection of the bisectrices is the incentre, proves the claim of the problem.
