By angle bisector theorem on △ A B D and △ C B D we have
A D A B = F D F B C D C B = F D F B ⎭ ⎪ ⎪ ⎬ ⎪ ⎪ ⎫ ⇒ A D A B = C D C B ⇒ C B A B = C D A D ( 1 ) By angle bisector theorem on △ A B C C B A B = E C A E ( 2 ) Using the same theorem on △ A D C C D A D = G C A G ( 3 ) ( 1 ) , ( 2 ) , ( 3 ) ⇒ E C A E = G C A G This means that points E and G divide internaly the segment A C in the same ratio, hence they coincide. The answer is Y e s , a l w a y s .
