We are given trapezoid $ABCD$ and point $M$ on the intersection of its diagonals. The parallel sides are $AD$ and $BC$ and it is known that $AB$ is perpendicular to $AD$ and that the trapezoid can have an inscribed circle.

2017 LMT, Max Area

The goal of this problem is to show that the maximum area of a polygon with a fixed number of sides and a fixed perimeter is achieved by a regular polygon. (a) Prove that the polygon with maximum area must be convex. (Hint: If any angle is concave, show that the polygon’s area can be increased.) (b) Prove that if two adjacent sides have different lengths, the area of the polygon can be increased without changing the perimeter. (c) Prove that the polygon with maximum area is equilateral, that is, has all the same side lengths. It is true that when given all four side lengths in order of a quadrilateral, the maximum area is achieved in the unique configuration in which the quadrilateral is cyclic, that is, it can be inscribed in a circle. (d) Prove that in an equilateral polygon, if any two adjacent angles are different then the area of the polygon can be increased without changing the perimeter. (e) Prove that the polygon of maximum area must be equiangular, or have all angles equal. (f ) Prove that the polygon of maximum area is a regular polygon. PS. You had better use hide for answers.
