$ABC$ is a right-angled triangle, with $\angle ABC = 90^{\circ}$. $B'$ is the reflection of $B$ over $AC$. $M$ is the midpoint of $AC$. We choose $D$ on $\overrightarrow{BM}$, such that $BD = AC$. Prove that $B'C$ is the angle bisector of $\angle MB'D$. NOTE: An important condition not mentioned in the original problem is $AB<BC$. Otherwise, $\angle MB'D$ is not defined or $B'C$ is the external bisector.

To [i]clip[/i] a convex $n$-gon means to choose a pair of consecutive sides $AB, BC$ and to replace them by the three segments $AM, MN$, and $NC$, where $M$ is the midpoint of $AB$ and $N$ is the midpoint of $BC$. In other words, one cuts off the triangle $MBN$ to obtain a convex $(n+1)$-gon. A regular hexagon ${\cal P}_6$ of area 1 is clipped to obtain a heptagon ${\cal P}_7$. Then ${\cal P}_7$ is clipped (in one of the seven possible ways) to obtain an octagon ${\cal P}_8$, and so on. Prove that no matter how the clippings are done, the area of ${\cal P}_n$ is greater than $\frac 13$, for all $n \geq 6$.
