Problem Statement

We are given a trapezoid ABCDABCD with ABCDAB \parallel CD, CD=2ABCD=2AB and DBBCDB \perp BC. Let EE be the intersection of lines DADA and CBCB, and MM be the midpoint of DCDC. (a) Prove that ABMDABMD is a rhombus. (b) Prove that triangle CDECDE is isosceles. (c) If AMAM and BDBD meet at OO, and OEOE and ABAB meet at N,N, prove that the line DNDN bisects segment EBEB.
