Replace $1-x$ by $x$. Then you have the line $\ \ell\colon\ y=\theta x$ and for a given $K>2$ the curve $\gamma: \quad x^K+y^K=1\ ,$ where everything is restricted to the window $[0,1]^2$. The curve $\gamma$ intersects $\ell$ in a point $p:=(u,v)$. Obviously $v=\theta u$, and as $p\in\gamma$ we get the equation $u^K(1+\theta^K)=1\ .$ This implies $A:=v^K=\theta^K u^K={\theta^K\over 1+\theta^K}\ .$ On the other hand you are given $K$ points $(x_i,y_i)\in\ell$, chosen such that $\prod_{i=1}^K x_i + \prod_{i=1}^K y_i=1\ .$ As $y_i=\theta x_i$ for each $i$ we have $(\theta^{-K}+1)\prod_{i=1}^K y_i=1$ or $B:=\prod_{i=1}^K y_i={1\over \theta^{-K}+1}={\theta^K\over 1+\theta^K}=A\ .$
