BALTIC-WAY 1998 Problem 9

    Let the numbers α,β\alpha, \beta satisfy 0<α<β<π/20<\alpha<\beta<\pi / 2 and let γ\gamma and δ\delta be the numbers defined by the conditions:

    (i) 0<γ<π/20<\gamma<\pi / 2, and tan⁡γ\tan \gamma is the arithmetic mean of tan⁡α\tan \alpha and tan⁡β\tan \beta;

    (ii) 0<δ<π/20<\delta<\pi / 2, and 1cos⁡δ\frac{1}{\cos \delta} is the arithmetic mean of 1cos⁡α\frac{1}{\cos \alpha} and 1cos⁡β\frac{1}{\cos \beta}.

    Prove that γ<δ\gamma<\delta.
