    The document presents the British flag theorem, which states that for any point P inside a rectangle ABCD, the sum of the squared distances from P to the vertices A and C is equal to the sum of the squared distances from P to the vertices B and D. It then provides 9 exercises applying the theorem to find missing distances or lengths. The document also presents Viviani's theorem, which states that for any point P inside an equilateral triangle, the sum of the distances from P to the three sides is equal to the triangle's height. It provides 5 additional exercises applying Viviani's theorem.

    BRITISH FLAG THEOREM

    Given any point P that lies inside rectangle ABCD, we have:


    AP²+CP²=BP²+DP².
    The measurements AP, BP, CP, and DP denote the distances of P
    from each of the rectangle's vertices.

    Exercises:
    1. Point E lies within rectangle ABCD. If AE=7, BE=5, and CE=8, what is DE?

    2. Let P be a point inside rectangle ABCD. If PD=12, PC=7 and PA=10,


    what is PB?

    3. O is any point inside rectangle ABCD such that OB =6cm, OD = 8cm


    and OA =5cm. What will be the length OC?

    4. Inside of the rectangle IMTJ, we select a point G such that GI=7,


    GM=15, GT=24 then GJ=?
    5. Inside Rectangle CEDI, a point L exists such that CL=6 cm, EL=4 cm,
    and DL=5 cm. What is the length of IL?

    6. Let P be a point inside rectangle ABCD. If AP=10, CP=7, and DP=12


    cm, find BP.

    7. In rectangle CORE, a point N is chosen inside such that CN=RN=5 in


    and EN=7 in. Find the length of ON, in inches.

    8. In rectangle ABCD, a point P is chosen such that AP=2 cm, BP=3 cm,
    and CP=4 cm. Find the length of DP.

    9. A rectangle MNOP has a point K insides such that the length of


    MK=x+1, NK=x+2, OK=x+3, and PK=x+4. Find the length of PK.
    VIVIANI'S THEOREM
    This theorem states that for any point P inside an EQUILATERAL
    triangle ABC, the sum of the distances of P from AB, BC, and AC is
    equal to its height.

    Exercises:
    1. A point P is chosen from an equilateral triangle such that its distances
    from each side are 5 cm, 8 cm, and 11 cm. Find the length of its altitude.

    2. The height of an equilateral triangle is 14√3 cm. If a point has distance


    3√3 and 5√3 cm from two of its sides, find the distance of P from the third
    side.

    3. A tree is enclosed within the perimeter of posts A, B, and C, each


    equidistant from one another and wired by a fence. The tree is 20 meters
    from the fence connected by A and B, 30 meters from the fence
    connected by B and C, and 40 meters from the fence connected by A
    and C.
    4. The distance of a point from an equilateral triangle with height 9 cm
    from two of its sides are equal, and the distance of the same point from
    the third side is 7 cm. Find the common distance from the point.

    5. Find the area of an equilateral triangle such that there exists a point
    whose distance from each sides are 6 cm, 8 cm, and 11 cm.
