(10 points) 4. On a trianglepoints on side ABC CA so that, D and ∠ DCBE′^ are points on side = ∠E′BA, and BC F andso that F ′ (^) are points on sides ∠BAD = ∠D′AC ,AB E and so that E′^ are ∠ACF = ∠F ′CB. Suppose that AD, BE, CF are concurrent. Show that AD′, BE′, CF ′^ are also concurrent. Hint: You may use BDDC = ABAC^ sinsin^ ∠∠BADDAC.

and

to the points

and

, respectively.

For any ordinary point ′ (^) and perpendicular to OP PP 6 = O′ (^) is called the, let P ′^ be polar of P for the circle C. Show that, if the polar of P passes through a point Q, then the polar of Q passes through P.
