Mass Points Geometry

Some of the harder/hardest questions at Mathcounts can be tackled at ease using mass point geometry
so spend some time understanding it.

Basics 

2014-15 Mathcounts handbook Mass Point Geometry Stretch
from page 39 to page 40

(Talking about motivation, yes, there are students already almost finish
this year's Mathcounts' handbook harder problems.)

It's much more important to fully understand how it works, the easier questions the weights align
very nicely.

The harder problems the weights are messier, not aligning nicely, so you need to find ways to may them integers (LCM) for easier solving.

Let me know if you have questions. I love to help (:D) if you've tried.
