Prove that if you draw a right triangle and then draw a circle with its center on the hypotenuse's midpoint such that it intersects at least 1 vertex, it will in fact intersect all three.
Drew, there is a theorem which states something to the effect that if the diagonal of a circle forms one side of a triangle, and the third vertex lies on the circumference of the circle, then the triangle is right-angled.
Prove this theorem, quote the corollary, and I believe you have the solution which Antonio requires
