Prove the following:
If Γ
1, Γ
2, Γ
3, and Γ
4 are circles or
straight lines ( see Note below )
such that
Γ
1∩Γ
2 = {A,K},
Γ
2∩Γ
3 = {B,L},
Γ
3∩Γ
4 = {C,M}, and
Γ
4∩Γ
1 = {D,N}
then
the points A, B, C, and D are concyclic if and only if
the points K, L, M, and N are concyclic.
Note: At most only one of the points in {A,B,C,D} is the intersection
of two straight lines. In that case the corresponding
point in
{K,L,M,N} is the point at infinity ( ∞ ).
