# Open Proof Contest 3

Hello Every$\displaystyle \int_0^1{dx}$.

This is the third part of the contest started by me.Here is the $3^{rd}$ part.The rules are the same as the previous ones. You need need to mail the PDFs to opencontestproofs@gmail.com. To make a PDF you can go to Latex PDF. Also you can send a snip of the solution after typing it in $\LaTeX$.

Here are the questions

1.Look at the figure below :

It is given that $AB || GF$ and $EFGH$ is parallelogram. Prove that $FE || DC$ .

$2$. Look at the figure below :

$ABCD$ is a parallelogram and $AXY$ is a straight line through $A$ meeting $BC$ at $X$ and $DC$ at $Y$. Prove that $BX\times DY$ is a constant.

$3$.Look at the figure below:

Given four points $A,B,C,D$ in a straight line, show that a point $O$ exists in the same straight line such that $OA:OB = OC:OD$.Also find that point.

$4$.Look at the figure below:

$PQ$ is a chord of a circle. Through the mid point $M$ of $PQ$ chords $AB$ and $CD$ are drawn. $AD$ and $BC$ meet $PQ$ at $K$ and $L$. Then prove that $M$ is the midpoint of $KL$.

This discussion board is a place to discuss our Daily Challenges and the math and science related to those challenges. Explanations are more than just a solution — they should explain the steps and thinking strategies that you used to obtain the solution. Comments should further the discussion of math and science.

When posting on Brilliant:

• Use the emojis to react to an explanation, whether you're congratulating a job well done , or just really confused .
• Ask specific questions about the challenge or the steps in somebody's explanation. Well-posed questions can add a lot to the discussion, but posting "I don't understand!" doesn't help anyone.
• Try to contribute something new to the discussion, whether it is an extension, generalization or other idea related to the challenge.
