A parallelogram \(ABCD\) and a point \(E\) are given. Through the points \(A, B, C, D\), lines parallel to the straight lines \(EC, ED, EA,EB\), respectively, are drawn. Prove that they intersect at one point.

A quadrilateral has an axis of symmetry. Prove that this quadrilateral is either an isosceles trapezoid or is symmetric with respect to its diagonal.

The symmetry axis of the polygon intersects its sides at points \(A\) and \(B\). Prove that the point \(A\) is either the vertex of the polygon or the middle of the side perpendicular to the axis of symmetry.

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.

Prove that the triangle \(ABC\) is regular if and only if, by turning it by \(60^{\circ}\) (either clockwise or anticlockwise) with respect to point A, its vertex B moves to \(C\).

Prove that the midpoints of the sides of a regular polygon form a regular polygon.

Two perpendicular straight lines are drawn through the centre of the square. Prove that their intersection points with the sides of a square form a square.
