Given a point O, a point Ma and a point Mb, construct the triangle ABC.

Status

ArgoTriCS says that the problem is solvable.

Illustration

Figure of construction

Solution


  1. Using the point O and the point Ma, construct a line ma (rule W02);

    % DET: points O and Ma are not the same

  2. Using the point O and the point Mb, construct a line mb (rule W02);

    % DET: points O and Mb are not the same

  3. Using the point Ma and the line ma, construct a line a (rule W10a);

  4. Using the point Mb and the line mb, construct a line b (rule W10a);

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

    % NDG: lines b and a are not parallel

    % DET: lines b and a are not the same

  6. Using the point C and the point Ma, construct a point B (rule W01);

  7. Using the point Mb and the point C, construct a point A (rule W01);
