Resumen

We study a problem in elementary Euclidean geometry by using multiple approaches. We conclude that today's computer assisted study can introduce new methods to understand relationships and concepts better. Namely, using GeoGebra's Automated Reasoning Tools, several details of the original problem can be put into an algebraic context, and therefore, its automated investigation is possible, in some sense, mechanically. Still, creative thinking and reformulation of the problem in a different setting remains useful.
