Triangles and internal bisectors - PRMO 2019


Let ABC be a triangle and let D be its circumcircle, The internal bisectors of angles A,B and C intersect D at \(A_1,B_1 and C_1\) the internal bisectors of \(A_1,B_1,C_1\) of the triangle \(A_1B_1C_1\) intersect D at \(A_2,B_2,C_2\). If the smallest angle of triangle ABC is 40 find the magnitude of the smallest angle of triangle \(A_2B_2C_2\) in degrees.

Geometry Vol I to IV by Hall and Stevens

Try with Hints


angle \(A_1B_1C_1=90 - \frac{ABC}{2}\) angle \(A_1C_1B_1=90-\frac{ACB}{2}\)

angle \(B_1A_1C_1\)=90-\(\frac{BAC}{2}\)

then angle \(A_2B_2C_2=90-\frac{90-\frac{ABC}{2}}{2}\)=45+\(\frac{ABC}{4}\)=55.
