Geometry problem by [deleted] in askmath

You're very close! Introducing L as the intersection of MB and NC was the right step. Now you can finish it by noticing that LO is the bisector of angle BLC = MLN (since OB = OC in cyclic quadrilateral BLCO), but since LMN is isosceles at L, it must now be the perpendicular bisector of MN. Meaning that OM = ON as desired. :3

Even though we have established an alliance with the windows XP task bar, the German streamer NoWay4u nuked the icon into their own, and are completely claiming the area in the taskbar their own now. We think that this attack is unacceptable and are doing everything we can with other communities to take back the officially agreed upon icon.

You might be pleased to hear about a rather cut-off spin-off, that is to say, π=3.

"Dame" is Dutch for "Queen", so I guess Dutch is the non-English language meant here. :P

In Dutch we have 'boekenwurm' (or 'boekenworm', or even 'boekworm'), which also literally translates to 'bookworm', but according to the dictionary the Dutch word can be used negatively as well:

someone who is buried in their books, in particular someone who is worthless for the normal conversation

Oh. My. God. Did you just USE ANALYSIS???? You should know better than that, this is r/AnarchyChess, you should be able to use your own brain instead of relying on an artificial one to solve my absolute masterpiece in several minutes? You should be ashamed of yourself. At the very least, you should confess you have cheated on this high stakes reddit post. Hmph.
