CMO 1994 Problem 4

  • Paper

Let ABAB be a diameter of a circle Ω\Omega and PP be any point not on the line through ABAB . Suppose that the line through PAPA cuts Ω\Omega again at UU , and the line through PBPB cuts Ω\Omega at VV . Note that in case of tangency, UU may coincide with AA or VV might coincide with BB . Also, if PP is on Ω\Omega then P=U=VP=U=V . Suppose that ∣PU∣=s∣PA∣|PU|=s|PA| and ∣PV∣=t∣PB∣|PV|=t|PB| for some 0≤s,t∈R0\le s,t\in \mathbb{R} . Determine cos⁡∠APB\cos \angle APB in terms of s,ts,t .
