Show your work, and if possible, explain where you are stuck.
And if possible send a diagram atleast
For a it was simple
But b is impossible
I thought that a was actually a guidance for b, to use PAM=PNM (angles)
To show that is inscribable I tried finding angle OBQ equal to PAM
the right triangles are similar, so they have equal angles.
if two angles with common base are equal then they make an inscribed quadrilateral
PQ
Tbh you've written the problem statement like crap. No Q, what is 2, and in fact the data allow angles from (a) to be not equal. And the figure is the same bad. No markings. I can't even explain which triangles are similar
What is H in your figure?
Red and green triangles are similar
How is AM/BK=OM/OK
I ask too many questions because I want to make sure I understand everything
Not just copy
That's standard in any trapezoid. Just think about it
AM and BK are half diagonals. So just move one diagonal to make a triangle similar to OKM
