    Wow! Alternatively, OBD is similar to ABC which is a 3-4-5 triangle
    OD = r, BD = 4-r
    (4 - r) /r = 4/3
    12 - 3r = 4r
    7r = 12
    r = 12/7
    Also
    OB = (5/3)r = 20/7
    x = 5 - OB - r
    x = 35/7 - 20/7 - 12/7
    x = 3/7

Очень сложная задача, ну совсем олимпиадная. :)))

    draw a horizontal line and a perpendicular line from the center of the circle
    r / (r + x) = 4/5
    5r = 4r + 4x
    x = r/4
    r / (3 - r) = 4/3

    r = 12/7
    x = r/4 = 3/7

    As BC = 4 and CA = 3, ∆BCA is a 3-4-5 Pythagorean triple triangle and AB = 5. Let O be the center point of the semicircle (at the midpoint of PQ). As AP = x and OP = r, AO = x+r. Let M and N be the points of tangency between semicircle O and BC and CA respectively. Draw OM and ON. As radii, OQ = OM = ON = OP = r.
    First method:
    As BC and CA are tangent to semicircle O, ∠OMC = ∠CNO = 90°. As ∠MCN = 90° as well, then ∠NOM = 90° and OMCN is a square with side length r. As BC = 4 and CA = 3, BM = 4-r and NA = 3-r.
    As ∠BMO = ∠BCA = 90° and ∠B is common, ∆BMO and ∆BCA are similar.
    OB/BM = AB/BC
    OB/4-r = 5/4
    OB = (4-r)5/4 = 5 - 5r/4
    AB = 5
    AO + OB = 5
    (x+r) + (5-5r/4) = 5
    x + r = 5r/4
    x = 5r/4 - r = r/4
    Triangle ∆BMO:
    OM² + BM² = OB²
    r² + (4-r)² = (5-5r/4)² = ((20-5r)/4)²
    r² + 16 - 8r + r² = (400-200r+25r²)/16
    32r² - 128r + 256 = 25r² - 200r + 400
    7r² + 72r - 144 = 0
    7r² + 84r - 12r - 144 = 0
    7r(r+12) - 12(r+12) = 0
    (r+12)(7r-12) = 0
    r = -12 ❌ | r = 12/7
    x = r/4 = (12/7)/4 = 3/7
    Second method:
    Draw OC. This creates two triangles, ∆OBC and ∆OCA. As BC and CA are tangent to semicircle O at M and N respectively, OM is perpendicular to BC and ON is perpendicular to CA.
    [ABC] = [OBC] + [OCA]
    bh/2 = bh/2 + bh/2
    4(3)/2 = 4r/2 + 3r/2
    12 = 7r
    r = 12/7
    As OM is perpendicular to BC, ON is perpendicular to CA, and BC is perpendicular to CA, CN = OM = r. As CA = 3, NA = 3-r = 3-(12/7) = 9/7. As ON = 12/7, ∆ONA is a 3/7:1 ratio 3-4-5 Pythagorean triple triangle and AO = 5(3/7) = 15/7.
    AO = x + r
    15/7 = x + 12/7
    x = 15/7 - 12/7 = 3/7

    The main triangle is a classic 3-4-5 right triangle. Its easier to use side ratio.
    Exc triangle OEA
    OE:4::EA:3, then
    r/4=(3-r)/3 there you get r=12/7
    And then OA:5::OE:4, then
    (r+x)/5=r/4, then 4r+4x=5r, then 4x=r, so x=r/4=3/7... done in less than 1 minute without hassle

  • @ulrichgraf2094
    @ulrichgraf2094 5 месяцев назад

    Alternate method with simple calculations in coordinate system: center of circle is the intersection of (A,B) and bisectiing line of angle BCA. Choose coordinte center in C. So we have x/4 + y/3 = 1 and y = -x. => O(-12/7;12/7) => r=12/7. Then x = dist(O,A) - r = 3/7.
    No rocket science, few geometry rules, simple doing even for pupils.

  • @michellauzon4640
    @michellauzon4640 7 месяцев назад +1

    You did not mention in the question that A B passes by the center of the circle.
    Put the origine at C, the center of the circle is (-r , r). The line AB has the equation 4y - 3x = 12. So 7r = 12.
    Now x = SQRT (sqr(r) + sqr(3-r)) - r. Replace r by 12/7 and you got the answer.

  • @KahlieNiven
    @KahlieNiven 6 месяцев назад

    can be easier using 3-4-5 triangle (and previously determining r = 12/7)
    AB = x + r + OB (with OB = sqrt(r²+(4-r)²) from Pythagorus)
    => 5 = x+ r + sqrt(r²+(4-r)²)
    => x = 5 - r - sqrt(r²+(4-r)²)
    => x = 5 - 12/7 - sqrt((12/7)²+(16/7)²)
    => x = 23/7 - sqrt(12²+16²)/7
    (12²+16² = 20² still from homothetic 3-4-5 triangle)
    => x = 23/7 - sqrt(20²)/7
    => x = 23/7 - 20/7 = 3/7
    (no quadratic equation to solve)

  • @daakudaddy5453

    You used very long claculations
    To find r, after proving AEO is similar to ODB
    AE / OE = OD / BD
    (3 - r)/r = r/(4 - r)
    (3 - r) (4 - r) = r^2
    12 - 7r + r^2 = r^2
    12 = 7r
    r = 12/7
    Now apply Pythagoras in AEO
    (3-r)^2 + r^2 = (r+x)^2
    x = Root((3-r)^2 + r^2) - r
    Now input r = 12/7 and calculate for x
    x = 3/7
    Alternatively,
    r / (r+x) = 4/5
    (because we have 3-4-5 right triangle)
    5r = 4r + 4x
    r = 4x
    x = r/4
    x = 12/(7 x 4)
    x = 3/7

  • @ahmedabdelkoui3790

    Let's reason about the symmetry of the image in relation to the vertical. The equation of the circle is (x-r)^2+(y-r)^2=r^2. the center is the intersection of the lines: y=x and y=ax+b (noted ∆) with 3=a(0)+b and 0=4a+b i.e.: b=3 and a=-3/4 d 'where y=(-3/4)x+3. For y=x, we will have: (4/4)x=3-(3/4)x or (7/4)x=3. So r=12/7=24/14. If the center is noted C and A(0,3) on ∆, ||AC||=15/7 let D be the point of intersection of the circle and ∆ in the segment AC. ||AC||=||AD||+||DC||=x+r. 15/7=x+12/7, x=3/12.
    Why ||AC||=15/7 ?
    ||AC||^2 = r^2+(3-r)^2 = 9-6r+2r^2 = 2(144/49) + (9*49)/49 - (6*12*7)/49 = (288+441-504)/49=(729-504)/49=225/49=(15/7)^2 and then ||AC||=15/7.
    Other solution : r=12/7 and according to the diagram, ABC and AOE are two identical triangles. Consequently: OE/BC=AO/AB, i.e. r/4=(r+x)/5. So, 5r/20=4r/20+4x/20. So r/20=4x/20, x=r/4=(12/7)/4=3/7.

  • @prbprb2

    O needs to be on the 45 deg diagonal through C, and belong also to the line AB. So it's coordinates are (12/7) (-1,1), where C is the origin.
    The distance of O to A is therefore (15/7). The distance x is therefore 15/7 - 12/7 (the radius of the circle) = 3/7

    The sides of these triangles are 3 - radius, radius, and a hypotenuse
    of sides 5/4 r since the new triangle is similar to the original
    3-4-5 right triangle
    Hence 5/4 r = (3-r)^2 + r^2
    25/16 r^2 = 9 + r^2 - 6r + r^2
    25/16 r^2 = 9 + 2r^2 - 6 r
    25 r ^2 = 144 + 32 r^2 - 96 r
    0 = 7 r^2 - 96 r + 144
    r = 1.71429
    Hence, the length from the center of the semi-circle
    to the end of the triangle is 5/4 * 1.71429 or 2.1428625

    This shape does not exist!!! The center of the circle in a triangle like this with sides 4, 3, has hypotenuse =5. The circle tangent to the sides does NOT have a center on the hypotenuse!!! Don't post fake problems! mercy!!! It is impossible that tο be an Olympiad problem!!! Prove it, tell us the year! I'm waiting

    Дуже погане та нудне навчання блогерами Канади , яке не стимулює учнів : проста задача , яка вирішується двума формулами з подібності трикутників та відношенням квадрата дотичної до сікущої , проведених с однієї точки . OD/BD=AC/DC , r/4-r=3/4 , 4r=12-3r , r=12/7 .
    AE*2=AP х AQ , (3 - r)*2 = X x (X+2r) (3 - 12/7)*2=Х х (Х + 24/7) , (9/7)*2 = X*2 + 24/7X ,
    X*2 + 24/7X - 81/49 , Х= -12/7 + \/ 144/49+81/49 = -12/7 + \/225/49 = -12/7 + 15/7 = 3/7.
    Другий корінь негативний , тому його вирішення не приводиться .
