Circle in hypotenuse (Posted on 2003-11-14) Difficulty: 3 of 5
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.

Though its a theorem and already been proven I want to prove it by the calculation of the distance between the midpoint of the hypotenuse and the vertex of the right angle and ive found out that its equal to half of hyptenuse so it lies with the circle
