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.

(In reply to solution by SilverKnight)

I'm afraid your solution fails to take into account things like wind resistance and the current of the river. (It said we shouldn't do that in the boat/river puzzle, but it didn't say we shouldn't do that in this one.)
