Five tangents
Five points ABCDE are equally spaced around the dotted circle. A smaller red circle is tangent to (ABCDE) at a point F, between B and C. Blue and green tangents are drawn from ABCDE to the red circle, and are coloured blue and green as shown. Show that the length sum of the blue tangents equals the length sum of the green tangents.
