1. Problem Description
Given a circle with chord . Point is on the extension of such that . A tangent line from to the circle intersects the circle at point . Point is on the same side of line as the center of the circle. We need to find various lengths and ratios related to this configuration.
2. Solution Steps
(1) Find .
By the tangent-secant theorem, . Therefore, .
(2) Find the similar triangle to .
(angle between tangent and chord).
Also, is given.
Therefore, (AA similarity).
Find .
Since , we have .
Also, . Therefore, .
(3) Let and be the intersection points of the angle bisector of with and , respectively.
Find and .
By the angle bisector theorem in , . So .
By the angle bisector theorem in , .
Let be the intersection of and .
We want to find .
In , is the angle bisector of , and intersects at .
However, directly finding CG/GD is difficult.
Consider . is the intersection of the angle bisector of with , and is the intersection with . and intersect at .
Since , .
Since , . Thus, , so .
.
So and .
Since , .
Also, .
CE is the angle bisector of , so .
Thus . Since , we have , which implies , i.e., , ok.
requires more advanced knowledge or techniques. Let's try using Menelaus' theorem on and line .
. I can't proceed from here.
Let's use Ceva's theorem on triangle with cevians , , , inside it.
However, Ceva does not lead directly to CG/GD
Area of quadrilateral as a multiple of the area of .
Back to CG/GD. We know AC/CD=9/6=3/
2. AD/BD = 3/
2. Since $\frac{AF}{FD} = 3/2$, we get $AF = \frac{3}{5} AD$.
3. Final Answer
(1)
(2) , ,
(3) ,
The problem is missing the diagrams that would provide values for CG/GD and the ratio of areas. Given the ratios calculated, and without extra time, it's not feasible to determine exact answers for those values.
