For a triangle T=ABCT = ABC we take the point XX on the side (AB)(AB) such that AX/AB=4/5AX/AB=4/5 , the point YY on the segment (CX)(CX) such that CY=2YXCY = 2YX and, if possible, the point ZZ on the ray ( CACA such that CXZ^=180−ABC^\widehat{CXZ} = 180 - \widehat{ABC} . We denote by Σ\Sigma the set of all triangles TT for which XYZ^=45\widehat{XYZ} = 45 . Prove that all triangles from Σ\Sigma are similar and find the measure of their smallest angle.
