Problem Let $D$ be the foot of the perpendicular drawn from the vertex $A$ to the opposite side $BC$ of $△ABC$, and let $E$ and $F$ be the midpoints of the sides $BC$ and $AB$, respectively. Then $$∠DFE=|∠B-∠C|$$ $$ $$ $$ $$ $\downarrow$ $\downarrow$ $\downarrow$ $\downarrow$ $\downarrow$ $$ $$ $$ $$ $$ $$ $$ $$…

Problem Create an isosceles triangle $ALM$ that overlaps two sides $AB$ and $AC$ of a triangle $ABC$, extend $LM$ and $BC$, and let $N$ be their intersection. Then the straight line $LN$ intersects $AB$ at an angle equal to half the sum of its lower angles, and intersects the extension of the base of the…
