You're being too productive; let me help:

World's hardest easy geometry problem, forwarded by a coworker, allegedly solvable with pure geometry (no trigonometry).

I have an issue with the title. Specifically, define "easy" and "hard". If "easy" means no trig, then aren't we including classic problems like trisecting an angle and squaring a circle? Especially if "hardest" includes "impossible"....%^)

I think the claim is that this is the hardest problem the author knows about for which a solution is known and that does not require trig. That's my read on it, anyway.
