UDC 51(07): 372.851

The article suggests two different solutions of a geometry problem (problem no. 5) for the correspondence round of the contest «Conquer the Vorobyovy Gory». One of the solutions is algebraic, the other, a shorter and a more elegant one, is geometric.

geometry, right triangle, altitude, contest «Conquer the Vorobyovy Gory»
