  • Paper

In square ABCDABCD, points EE and HH lie on AB‾\overline{AB} and DA‾\overline{DA}, respectively, so that AE=AH.AE=AH. Points FF and GG lie on BC‾\overline{BC} and CD‾\overline{CD}, respectively, and points II and JJ lie on EH‾\overline{EH} so that FI‾⊥EH‾\overline{FI} \perp \overline{EH} and GJ‾⊥EH‾\overline{GJ} \perp \overline{EH}. See the figure below. Triangle AEHAEH, quadrilateral BFIEBFIE, quadrilateral DHJGDHJG, and pentagon FCGJIFCGJI each has area 1.1. What is FI2FI^2?

real x=2sqrt(2);
real y=2sqrt(16-8sqrt(2))-4+2sqrt(2);
real z=2sqrt(8-4sqrt(2));
pair A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J;
A = (0,0);
B = (4,0);
C = (4,4);
D = (0,4);
E = (x,0);
F = (4,y);
G = (y,4);
H = (0,x);
I = F + z * dir(225);
J = G + z * dir(225);

draw(A--B--C--D--A);
draw(H--E);
draw(J--G^^F--I);
draw(rightanglemark(G, J, I), linewidth(.5));
draw(rightanglemark(F, I, E), linewidth(.5));
