Just reflect the point of the interior say P in B C to obtain P ′ .Thus , ∠ P B C = ∠ P ′ B C a n d ∠ P C B = ∠ P ′ C B by the reflection properties.Thus we have:
∠ B P ′ C = 1 8 0 − ∠ P ′ B C − ∠ P ′ C B = 1 8 0 − ( ∠ P B C + ∠ P C B ) = 1 8 0 − ∠ B A C
Since ∠ B P ′ C = 1 8 0 − ∠ B A C , we conclude that □ A B P ′ C is cyclic.Denote R ( A B C ) as circumradius of Δ A B C . Thus , R ( A B C ) = R ( P ′ B C )
Also Δ P B C ≅ Δ P ′ B C using ( A − S − A test). Thus , R ( P B C ) = R ( P ′ B C )
Thus finally , R ( A B C ) = R ( P B C ) ⇒ R 1 = R 2 .
