Let be the center of inscribed circle of the non-isosceles triangle . The ray meets circumscribed circle of the triangle at point . The circle passing through , , and meets again the ray at point .
Prove that .
Solution
Let be the circumcenter of the triangle . Let , , . We construct the line passing through and . Let be the point of intersection of this line and the ray . Since is a bisector of the angle , we have , and so the line is a perpendicular bisector of the segment . Therefore, , i.e. the triangle is isosceles and ( is the bisector of the angle ). Hence,

On the other hand,
Therefore, . It follows that the points , and lie on the same circumference (passing through ). Thus, and coincide. Hence, , as required.
