Ta có: \(\Delta A'B'O'\sim\Delta ABO\Rightarrow\dfrac{A'B'}{AB}=\dfrac{O'A'}{OA}\left(1\right)\)
\(\Delta FA'B'\sim\Delta FOI\Rightarrow\dfrac{FA'}{OF}=\dfrac{A'B'}{OI}\left(2\right)\)
Và OI=AB, Từ (1) và (2) \(\Rightarrow\dfrac{OA'}{OA}=\dfrac{FA'}{OF}\left(3\right)\)
Mà FA'=OF-OA'
Hay \(\dfrac{OA'}{OA}=\dfrac{OF-OA'}{OF}\) thay số: \(\dfrac{OA'}{36}=\dfrac{18-OA'}{18}\Rightarrow OA'=12\left(cm\right)\)
Và: \(\dfrac{A'B'}{AB}=\dfrac{OA'}{OA}\Rightarrow A'B'=\dfrac{AB.OA'}{OA}=\dfrac{4.12}{36}=1,33\left(cm\right)\)
