Solution 1
First, continue to hit
at
. Also continue
to hit
at
.
We have that . Because
, we have
.
Similarly, because , we have
.
Therefore, .
We also have that because
is a parallelogram, and
.
Therefore, . This means that
, so
.
Therefore, .
Solution 2
Note that is rational and
is not divisible by
nor
because
.
This means the decimal representation of is a repeating decimal.
Let us set as the block that repeats in the repeating decimal:
.
( written without the overline used to signify one number so won't confuse with notation for repeating decimal)
The fractional representation of this repeating decimal would be .
Taking the reciprocal of both sides you get .
Multiplying both sides by gives
.
Since we divide
on both sides of the equation to get
.
Because is not divisible by
(therefore
) since
and
is prime, it follows that
.
Picture 1
Two half-circles are drawn as shown above, with a line throught the two intersections points,
of the half-circles. Lines
for
parallel to the bases of the half-circles are drawn such that the distances between
and
and
and
are always the same for all
.
The intersection points of with one of the half-circles are labeled
, and with the other half-circle at
, as shown in the diagram.
