Problem Statement

(a) Given a point OO inside an equilateral triangle ABC\vartriangle ABC. Line OGOG connects OO with the center of mass GG of the triangle and intersects the sides of the triangle, or their extensions, at points A,B,CA', B', C' . Prove that AOAG+BOBG+COCG=3.\frac{A'O}{A'G} + \frac{B'O}{B'G} + \frac{C'O}{C'G} = 3. (b) Point GG is the center of the sphere inscribed in a regular tetrahedron ABCDABCD. Straight line OGOG connecting GG with a point OO inside the tetrahedron intersects the faces at points A,B,C,DA', B', C', D'. Prove that AOAG+BOBG+COCG+DODG=4.\frac{A'O}{A'G} + \frac{B'O}{B'G} + \frac{C'O}{C'G}+ \frac{D'O}{D'G} = 4.
