- The following problem is from both the 2024 USAMO/5 and 2024 USAJMO/6, so both problems redirect to this page.
Problem
Point 
is selected inside acute triangle 
so that 
and 
. Point 
is chosen on ray 
so that 
. Let 
be the midpoint of 
. Show that line 
is tangent to the circumcircle of triangle 
.
Solution 1
define angle DBT as 
, the angle BEM as 
.
Extend AD intersects BC at point T, then TC = TA, TE is perpendicular to AC
Thus, AB is the tangent of the circle BEM
Then the question is equivalent as the angle ABT is the auxillary angle of the angle BEM
