Geometry Problem 1048: Tangent Circles, Common Chords, and Angle Bisectors

Explore the elegance of curvilinear configurations. From the foundational properties of the Arbelos to the complex metric relations between perpendicular diameters and common chords, discover a detailed visual analysis of the harmony within tangent circles and their bisectors.

< PREVIOUS PROBLEM  |  NEXT PROBLEM >

The figure below shows the circles of diameters AB, BC, and AC of centers O1, O2, and O3, respectively (B is on AC). DE is perpendicular to AC at B. If the chord FH is tangent to circles O1 and O2, prove that DE is the bisector of angle FDH.
