Andrew takes a square sheet of paper $ABCD$ of side length $1$ and folds a kite shape. To do this, he takes the corners at $B$ and $D$ and folds the paper such that both corners now rest at a point $E$ on $AC$. This fold results in two creases $CF$ and $CG$, respectively, where $F$ lies on $AB$ and $G$ lies on $AD$. Compute the length of $FG$.

On the sides $AD$ and $BC$ of a rhombus $ABCD$ we consider the points $M$ and $N$ respectively. The line $MC$ intersects the segment $BD$ in the point $T$, and the line $MN$ intersects the segment $BD$ in the point $U$. We denote by $Q$ the intersection between the line $CU$ and the side $AB$ and with $P$ the intersection point between the line $QT$ and the side $CD$. Prove that the triangles $QCP$ and $MCN$ have the same area.
