[*] ABCD is a square with side 1. M is the midpoint of AB, and N is the midpoint of BC. The lines CM and DN meet at I. Find the area of the triangle CIN. [*] The midpoints of the sides AB, BC, CD, DA of the parallelogram ABCD are M, N, P, Q respectively. Each midpoint is joined to the two vertices not on its side. Show that the area outside the resulting 8-pointed star is

\frac{2}{5}

the area of the parallelogram. [*] ABC is a triangle with CA = CB and centroid G. Show that the area of AGB is

\frac{1}{3}

of the area of ABC. [*] Is (ii) true for all convex quadrilaterals ABCD?
