Question

На отрезке AE по одну сторону от него построены равносторонние треугольники ABC и CDE. M и P середины AD и BE. Докажите что треугольник CPM равносторонний

Answer 1

Рассмотрим поворот на 60o относительно точки C, переводящий точку E в D. При этом точка B переходит в A, т. е. отрезок BE переходит в отрезок AD. Поэтому середина P отрезка BE переходит в середину M отрезка AD, т. е. треугольник CPM равносторонний. 

Answer 2

Given Information:

On the segment AE, there are two equilateral triangles, ABC and CDE, constructed on one side of it. M and P are the midpoints of AD and BE, respectively.

To Prove:

We need to prove that triangle CPM is also equilateral.

Proof:

To prove that triangle CPM is equilateral, we need to show that all three sides of the triangle are equal in length.

Let's consider the following points: - A, B, C, D, E are the vertices of the equilateral triangles ABC and CDE. - M is the midpoint of AD. - P is the midpoint of BE.

Since triangle ABC is equilateral, all three sides are equal in length. Similarly, triangle CDE is also equilateral, so all three sides are equal in length.

Now, let's consider triangle CPM. We need to show that all three sides of this triangle are equal.

1. Side CP: CP is a side of triangle CPM. Since C is a vertex of both triangles ABC and CDE, the length of side CP is the same as the length of side CA or CE. Therefore, CP = CA = CE.

2. Side PM: PM is a side of triangle CPM. Since M is the midpoint of AD, PM is half the length of AD. Similarly, since P is the midpoint of BE, PM is also half the length of BE. Therefore, PM = AD/2 = BE/2.

3. Side MC: MC is a side of triangle CPM. Since M is the midpoint of AD, MC is half the length of AC. Similarly, since P is the midpoint of BE, MC is also half the length of EC. Therefore, MC = AC/2 = EC/2.

From the above observations, we can conclude that CP = CA = CE, PM = AD/2 = BE/2, and MC = AC/2 = EC/2.

Since triangle ABC is equilateral, AC = BC. Similarly, triangle CDE is equilateral, so EC = DC.

Therefore, MC = AC/2 = BC/2 = EC/2 = DC/2.

Since MC = DC/2, we can conclude that MC = DC.

Now, let's consider triangle DCP. We have CP = DC and MC = DC. Therefore, CP = MC.

From the above observations, we can conclude that CP = MC = PM.

Since all three sides of triangle CPM are equal in length, triangle CPM is equilateral.

Therefore, we have proved that triangle CPM is equilateral.
