In convex quadrilateral KLMN side MN is perpendicular to diagonal KM, side KL is perpendicular to diagonal LN, MN=65, and KL=28. The line through L perpendicular to side KN intersects diagonal KM at O with KO=8. Find MO.
解析
Solution 1 (Trig)
Let ∠MKN=α and ∠LNK=β. Let P be the project of L onto line NK. Note ∠KLP=β.
2865=8cosα28sinα=27tanα⇒tanα=9865
Thus, MK=tanαMN=98, so MO=MK−KO=090.
Solution 2 (WRONG SOLUTION Cyclic Quads, PoP)
NOTE: this solution is wrong. The equation is correct due to similar triangles as described in solution 8, not PoP.
Because ∠KLN=∠KMN=90∘, KLMN is a cyclic quadrilateral. (THE FOLLOWING SENTENCE IS WRONG) Hence, by Power of Point,
KO⋅KM=KL2⟹KM=8282=98⟹MO=98−8=090
as desired.

Solution 3 (Similar triangles)
First, let P be the intersection of LO and KN as shown above. Note that m∠KPL=90∘ as given in the problem. Since ∠KPL≅∠KLN and ∠PKL≅∠LKN, △PKL∼△LKN by AA similarity. Similarly, △KMN∼△KPO. Using these similarities we see that
KLKP=KNKLKP=KNKL2=KN282=KN784
and
KOKP=KNKMKP=KNKO⋅KM=KN8⋅KM
Combining the two equations, we get
KN8⋅KM=KN7848⋅KM=282KM=98
Since KM=KO+MO, we get MO=98−8=090.

Solution 4 (Similar triangles, orthocenters)
Extend KL and NM past L and M respectively to meet at P. Let H be the intersection of diagonals KM and LN (this is the orthocenter of △KNP).
As △KOL∼△KHP (as LO∥PH, using the fact that H is the orthocenter), we may let OH=8k and LP=28k.
Then using similarity with triangles △KLH and △KMP we have
8+8k28=28+28k8+8k+HM
Cross-multiplying and dividing by 4+4k gives 2(8+8k+HM)=28⋅7=196 so MO=8k+HM=2196−8=090. (Solution by scrabbler94)
Solution 5 (Algebraic Bashing)
First, let P be the intersection of LO and KN. We can use the right triangles in the problem to create equations. Let a=NP,b=PK,c=NO,d=OM,e=OP,f=PC, and g=NC. We are trying to find d. We can find 7 equations. They are
4225+d2=c2,4225+d2+16d+64=a2+2ab+b2,a2+e2=c2,b2+e2=64,b2+e2+2ef+f2=784,a2+e2+2ef+f2=g2,
and
g2+784=a2+2ab+b2.
We can subtract the fifth equation from the sixth equation to get a2−b2=g2−784. We can subtract the fourth equation from the third equation to get a2−b2=c2−64. Combining these equations gives c2−64=g2−784 so g2=c2+720. Substituting this into the seventh equation gives c2+1504=a2+2ab+b2. Substituting this into the second equation gives 4225+d2+16d+64=c2+1504. Subtracting the first equation from this gives 16d+64=1504. Solving this equation, we find that d=090.

Solution 6 (5-second PoP)
Notice that KLMN is inscribed in the circle with diameter KN and XOMN is inscribed in the circle with diameter ON. Furthermore, (XLN) is tangent to KL. Then,
KO⋅KM=KX⋅KN=KL2⟹KM=8282=98,
and MO=KM−KO=090.
(Solution by TheUltimate123)
If you're wondering why KX⋅KN=KL2, it's because PoP on (XLN) or by KX⋅KN=KX⋅(KX+XN)=KX2+KX⋅XN=KX2+LX2=KL2 (last part by geometric mean theorem / similarity).
Note: the "semicircle" circumscribing points XOMN is not a semicircle. That is just there to tell you that X, O, M, N are indeed concyclic, so ignore the subtlety of the diagram that makes O seems slightly off the marks than it should be.
Solution 7 (Alternative PoP)
(Diagram by vedadehhc)
Call the base of the altitude from L to NK point P. Let PO=x. Now, we have that KP=64−x2 by the Pythagorean Theorem. Once again by Pythagorean, LO=720+x2−x. Using Power of a Point, we have
(KO)(OM)=(LO)(OQ)
(Q is the intersection of OL with the circle =L)
8(MO)=(720+x2−x)(720+x2+x)8(MO)=720MO=090
.
(Solution by RootThreeOverTwo)
Remark: Length of OQ
Since P is on the circle’s diameter, QP=LP=720+x2. So, OQ=PQ+PO=x+720+x2. ~diyarv
Solution8 (just one pair of similar triangles)
Note that since ∠KLN=∠KMN, quadrilateral KLMN is cyclic. Therefore, we have
∠LMK=∠LNK=90∘−∠LKN=∠KLP,
so △KLO∼△KML, giving
28KM=828⟹KM=98.
Therefore, OM=98−8=90.
Solution 9 (Pythagoras Bash)
By Pythagorean Theorem, KM2+652=KN2=282+LN2. Thus, LN2=KM2+652−282.
By Pythagorean Theorem, KP2+LP2=282, and PN2+LP2=LN2.
PN2=(KN−KP)2=(KM2+652−KP)2
It follows that
(KM2+652−KP)2+LP2=KM2+652−282KM2+652−2KM2+652(KP)+KP2+LP2=KM2+652−282
Since KP2+LP2=282,
KM2+652−2KM2+652(KP)+282=KM2+652−282−2KM2+652(KP)=−2×282KP=KM2+652282∠OKP=∠NKM (it's the same angle) and ∠OPK=∠KMN=90∘. Thus, △KOP∼△KNM.
Thus,
KNKO=KMKPKM2+6528=KMKM2+652282
Multiplying both sides by KM2+652:
8=KM282KM=98
Therefore, OM=98−8=90
