NL-NWO 2008 Problem 1

    Suppose we have a square ABCDABCD and a point SS in the interior of this square. Under homothety with centre SS and ratio of magnification k>1k > 1 , this square becomes another square A′B′C′D′A'B'C'D' . Prove that the sum of the areas of the two quadrilaterals A′ABB′A'ABB' and C′CDD′C'CDD' are equal to the sum of the areas of the two quadrilaterals B′BCC′B'BCC' and D′DAA′D'DAA' .
