The Two Identical Angles


Draw a square ABCD with sidelength 1 and midpoints E = M(AB), G=M(BC), F=M(CD), H=M(DA).
The circle having center A and radius 1 meets EF in I; the circle having center C with radius 1 meets GH in J.
Show that the angles <JAH and <JAI are identical. (What is the fastest way to prove this?)
How big is this angle? (What is the fastest way to calculate it?)
