    There are given 2nn+1 points A1,A3,…,A2n+1,A2n,A2n−2,…,A2A_1,A_3,\ldots,A_{2n+1},A_{2n},A_{2n-2},\ldots, A_2 (n≥n \ge2) lying on a circle in this order such that ∠A1A2A3=∠A2A3A4=…=∠A2n−1A2nA2n+1=90∘n\angle A_1A_2A_3 = \angle A_2A_3A_4 = \ldots = \angle A_{2n-1}A_{2n}A_{2n+1} = \frac{90^\circ}{n} . The lines A2A3,A3A4,,…,A2n−1A2nA_2A_3,A_3A_4,,\ldots, A_{2n-1}A_{2n} split the line segment A1A2n+1A_1 A_{2n+1} into 2nn-1 part; denote their lengths by ℓ1,ℓ2,…,ℓ2n−1\ell_1,\ell_2,\ldots,\ell_{2n-1}, respectively. Prove that ℓ12−ℓ22+ℓ32−ℓ42+−…−ℓ2n−22+ℓ2n−12=0\ell_1^2-\ell_2^2+\ell_3^2-\ell_4^2+-\ldots-\ell_{2n-2}^2+\ell_{2n-1}^2 = 0.
