7. In an acute triangle ABC, let O, G, H be its circumcentre, centroid and orthocentre, respectively. Let D ∈ BC, E ∈ CA such that OD ⊥ BC, HE ⊥ CA. Let F be
the midpoint of AB. If the triangles ODC, HEA, GF B have the same area, find
all the possible values of ∠C.
8. Let ABC be a right-angle triangle with ∠B = 90◦ . Let D be a point on AC such
that the inradii of the triangles ABD and CBD are equal. If this common value
is r0 and if r is the inradius of triangle ABC, prove that 1/r0 = 1/r + 1/BD.
9. Let ABC be an acute angled triangle. Let D, E, F be points on BC, CA, AB
such that AD is the median, BE is the internal bisector and CF is the altitude.
Suppose that ∠F DE = ∠C, ∠DEF = ∠A and ∠EF D = ∠B. Show that ABC is
equilateral.

10. Let ABC be a triangle with AB = AC. The angle bisectors of ∠CAB and ∠ABC
meet the sides BC and CA at D and E, respectively. Let K be the incentre of
triangle ADC. Suppose that ∠BEK = 45◦ . Find all possible values of ∠CAB.
11. Given an acute triangle ABC with O as its circumcentre. Line AO intersects BC
at D. Points E, F are on AB, AC respectively such that A, E, D, F are concyclic.

depend on the positions of E and F .
12. Consider an acute-angled triangle ABC. Let P be the foot of the altitude of
triangle ABC issuing from the vertex A, and let O be the circumcenter of triangle
ABC. Assume that ∠C ≥ ∠B + 30◦ . Prove that ∠A + ∠COP < 90◦ .
13. Let ABC be an acute triangle. Let ω be a circle whose centre L lies on the side
BC. Suppose that ω is tangent to AB at B 0 and AC at C 0 . Suppose also that the
circumcenter O of triangle ABC lies on the shorter arc B 0 C 0 of ω. Prove that the
circumcircle of ABC and ω meet at two points.
14. Let O be the circumcenter and H the orthocenter of an acute triangle ABC. Show
that there exist points D, E, and F on sides BC, CA, and AB respectively such
that OD + DH = OE + EH = OF + F H and the lines AD, BE, and CF are
concurrent.
15. Let H be the orthocenter of an acute-angled triangle ABC. The circle ΓA centered
at the midpoint of BC and passing through H intersects the sideline BC at points
A1 and A2 . Similarly, define the points B1 , B2 , C1 and C2 . Prove that the six
points A1 , A2 , B1 , B2 , C1 and C2 are concyclic.
16. Suppose that a > b > c > d are positive integers such that
