Problem 252 from Wernick's corpus: C, Ha, Tc


Problem

Given a point C, a point Ha and a point Tc, construct the triangle ABC.

Status

ArgoTriCS says that the problem is solvable.

Illustration

Solution


  1. Using the point C and the point Ha, construct a line a (rule W02);

    % DET: points C and Ha are not the same

  2. Using the point Ha and the line a, construct a line ha (rule W10b);

  3. Using the point Tc and the line a, construct a circle k(Tc,foot[Tc,b]) (rule W11);

    % NDG: point Tc is not incident to the line a

  4. Using the circle k(Tc,foot[Tc,b]), the point C, the point Tc and the line a, construct a line b (rule W13);

    % NDG: point C is outside the circle k(Tc,foot[Tc,b])

  5. Using the line b and the line ha, construct a point A (rule W03);

    % NDG: lines b and ha are not parallel

    % DET: lines b and ha are not the same

  6. Using the point Tc and the point A, construct a line c (rule W02);

    % DET: points Tc and A are not the same

  7. Using the line a and the line c, construct a point B (rule W03);

    % NDG: lines a and c are not parallel

    % DET: lines a and c are not the same
