Hint: Perhaps unrelated – study the
centroid of a triangle.
Solution: The centroid of a triangle is
found by intersecting the median, the median is defined by the intersection
between the midpoint of an edge and the opposite vertex. The interesting thing
about this is that it can be shown that the intersection point always cut the
median into two-third on the vertex side and one third on the remaining side.
It is this property that we will leverage for this level.
With
that in mind, we make AB the median, which means A is the opposite vertex and B
is the midpoint of some base line, construct the base line by creating a small
circle at B and draw the diameter CD, find the midpoint E of AD and join CE for
another median, now we find F which is the centroid of the triangle ACD. That cuts
the line in two third/one third, and so we use another circle with center F and
radius FB to find the remaining point G.
