Triangle ABC - June 13-17, 1994
Given any triangle ABC. Construct D and E as the midpoints of AB and BC. Construct
DF and EF, where F is any point on AC. Now construct the polygons BDFE, AEF, and
FDC, and look at their areas. What do you find?
What happens when F is the midpoint of AC? Are there other interesting positions for F?
Can you explain what you've found?
