Philoid · Accepted Answer

Proof : Draw seg GF.

∠ EFG = ∠ FGH {Alternate interior angles} (I)

∠ EFG = 90°{inscribed angle theorem}(II)

∠ FGH = 90°{inscribed angle theorem} (III)

∴m(arc EG) = 90° from (I), (II), (III).

chord EG ≅ chord FH {Corresponding chords of congruent arcs of a circle (or congruent circles) are congruent}
