Problem Statement

Let ABCABC be a triangle with AC>BCAC> BC, and let SS be the circumscribed circle of the triangle. ABAB divides SS into two arcs. Let DD be the midpoint of the arc containing CC. (a) Show that ACB+2ACD=180o\angle ACB +2 \cdot \angle ACD = 180^o. (b) Let EE be the foot of the altitude from DD on ACAC. Show that BC+CE=AEBC +CE = AE.
