Two circles of radius \(R\) intersect at points \(B\) and \(D\). Consider the perpendicular bisector of the segment \(BD\). This line meets the two circles again at points \(F\) and \(G\), both chosen on the same side of \(BD\). Prove that \[BD^2 + FG^2 = 4R^2.\]

Prove that a convex \(n\)-gon is regular if and only if it is transformed into itself when it is rotated through an angle of \(360^{\circ}/n\) with respect to some point.

Two circles \(c\) and \(d\) are tangent at point \(B\). Two straight lines intersecting the first circle at points \(D\) and \(E\) and the second circle at points \(G\) and \(F\) are drawn through the point \(B\). Prove that \(ED\) is parallel to \(FG\).
