CORECTAREA în ceea ce o privește pe EA
este una din cele mai grele probleme.
Vreau să mă raportez la EA altfel...
Regarding problem E : 17561, which was solved on the new blog, a few clarifications are in order.
First, for angle $\widehat{ ADC}$ to be $45^{\circ}$ , $\hat{C}$ must be greater than $45^{\circ}$ ; consequently,
$\hat{B}\leqslant 45^{\circ}$ , making the relationship $AB = 2\cdot AC$ possible (see the figure above, with slightly modified notation).
Secondly, the problem can be solved without relying on concepts regarding similarity, which are covered in the Romanian curriculum in the 7th grade.
A solution suitable for the 6th-grade level can be provided.
Thirdly, to avoid the concept of a parallelogram—which also belongs to the 7th-grade curriculum—we consider the following LEMMA; I would have liked to incorporate it into another GEOMETRIC OBJECT , but as I mentioned, I have other, more difficult problems to deal with now.
LEMMA Let $D$ be the midpoint of side $AB$ of triangle $ABC$ .
If the line through $D$ parallel to line $BC$ intersects side $AC$ at point
$E$ , then $E$ is the midpoint of $AC$ , and $DE$ is half the length of $BC$.
So, we have the Geometric Object
$\Delta ABC\;:$
$AD=DB \tag{1}$
$DE \parallel BC \tag{2}$
with the
Properties : $AE=EC\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;(3)$
$DE=\frac{BC}{2} \tag{4}$
From the hypothesis, we have the angle equalities (also marked in the figure) :
$\widehat{ADE}=\widehat{ABC}\;\;\;,\;\;\;\widehat{AED}=\widehat{ACB}$
Let $EF \parallel AB\;\;,\;F\in BC.$
The following angle equalities result :$\widehat{CEF}=\widehat{CAB} \tag{5}$
$\widehat{CFE}=\widehat{CBA} \tag{6}$
$\widehat {CFE}=\widehat {DEF}$ so
$\widehat{DEF}=\widehat{FBD} \tag{7}$
If we join points $D\; and\; F$ , then $EF \parallel DB$ implies
$\widehat{DFE}=\widehat{BDF} \tag{8}$
From (8) and (7) , by the ASA case of triangle congruence, we have $\Delta B\color{Magenta}{DF} \equiv \Delta E\color{Magenta}{FD}$ so
$BD=EF \tag{9}$
$DE=BF \tag{10}$
From (9) and (1) we have $EF=AD$ and with (5),(6) we obtain - via ASA case - $\Delta CEF\equiv \Delta EAD$. Therefore
$DE=\frac{BC}{2}$
that is, the conclusion (4).
$\square$
