  1. Point(xAxis) → A
  2. Point(xAxis) → B
  3. Segment(A, B) → e
  4. Point(e) → C
  5. Point(c) → D
  6. Line(B, D) → f
  7. Line(A, D) → g
  8. Intersect(a, f) → E
  9. Intersect(g, b) → F
  10. Intersect(e, xAxis) → G
  11. Polygon(A, D, E) → poly1, e_1, a_1, d
  12. Polygon(B, D, F) → poly2, f_1, b_1, d_1
  13. Segment(E, B) → h
  14. Segment(A, F) → i
