Technically, you have to proof that circle really inscribe the lines from the outside. (like you did with why circle touch AC, but need 2 more to complete proof) Cecil's prove only uses triangles. (see my first post for link) He likely know about the circle, but it required more explanations to readers in his column. Instead, he proved backwards (not using circle), showing DF = DG = DH BTW, have you peek at Thomas Puettmann sketch, about the green lines ? Why is that a right triangle ? |
