Let \(A\), \(B\), \(C\), \(D\), \(E\) be five different points on the circumference of a circle in that (cyclic) order. Let \(F\) be the intersection of chords \(BD\) and \(CE\). Show that if \(AB=AE=AF\) then lines \(AF\) and \(CD\) are perpendicular.

Let \(ABC\) be a non-isosceles triangle. The point \(G\) is the point of intersection of the medians \(AE\), \(BF\), \(CD\). The point \(H\) is the point of intersection of all heights. The point \(I\) is the center of the circumscribed circle of \(ABC\), or the point of intersection of all perpendicular bisectors to the segments \(AB\), \(BC\), \(AC\).
Prove that points \(I,G,H\) lie on one line and that the ratio \(IG:GH = 1:2\). The line that all of \(I\), \(G\) and \(H\) lie on is called the Euler line of triangle \(ABC\).

Let \(ABC\) be a triangle with midpoints \(D\) on the side \(BC\), \(E\) on the side \(AC\) and \(F\) on the side \(AB\). Let \(M\) be the point of intersection of all medians of the triangle \(ABC\) and let \(H\) be the point of intersection of the heights \(AJ\), \(BI\) and \(CK\). Consider the Euler circle of the triangle \(ABC\), which is the one that contains the points \(D,J,I,E,F,K\). This circle intersects the segments \(AH\), \(BH\) and \(CH\) at the points \(O\), \(P\) and \(Q\) respectively. Prove that \(O\), \(P\) and \(Q\) are the midpoints of the segments \(AH\), \(BH\) and \(CH\).

Consider the point \(H\) of intersection of the heights of the triangle \(ABC\). Prove that Euler lines of the triangles \(ABC\), \(ABH\), \(BCH\) and \(ACH\) intersect at one point. On the diagram below the points \(R,S,T\) are the points of intersection of medians in triangles \(ABH\), \(BCH\), and \(ACH\) respectively.
