    1 Introduction
    The cross ratio for 4 conconic points is defined as (A, B; C, D) = AC·BD
    BC·AD .
    Projective transformations send conics to conics and preserve cross-ratio.

    2 Problems: medium
    1. Let ABC be a triangle with incenter I. The foot of the perpendicular
    from I to BC is D, and the foot of the perpendicular from I to AD is P .
    Prove that ̸ BP D = ̸ DP C.

    2. Let P and Q be on segment BC of an acute triangle ABC such that


    ̸ P AB = ̸ BCA and ̸ CAQ = ̸ ABC. Let M and N be the points on
    AP and AQ, respectively, such that P is the midpoint of AM and Q is
    the midpoint of AN . Prove that the intersection of BM and CN is on
    the circumference of triangle ABC.

    3. The incircle of triangle ABC touches BC, CA, and AB at points A′ ,


    B ′ , and C ′ respectively. The perpendicular from the incenter I to the
    C-median meets the line A′ B ′ in point K. Prove that CK ∥ AB.

    4. Let ABCD be a cyclic quadrilateral inscribed in circle ω. The tangent to


    ω at A intersects lines CD and BC at E and F . Lines BE and DF meet
    ω again at G and I, and H = BE ∩ AD, J = DF ∩ AB. Prove that GI,
    HJ, and the B-symmedian of △ABC are concurrent.

    3 Problems: hard
    1. Let ABC be a scalene triangle, let I be its incenter, and let A1 , B1 and C1
    be the points of contact of the excircles with the sides BC, CA, and AB,
    respectively. Prove that the circumcircles of the triangles AIA1 , BIB1 ,
    and CIC1 have a common point different from I.
    2. Let ABC be a triangle with ̸ C < ̸ A < 90◦ . Select point D on side
    AC so that BD = BA. The incircle of ABC is tangent to AB and AC
    at points K and L, respectively. Let J be the incenter of triangle BCD.
    Prove that the line KL bisects AJ.
    3. Given a cyclic quadrilateral ABCD with circumcenter O and a point P
    on the plane, let O1 , O2 , O3 , and O4 denote the circumcenters of triangles
    P AB, P BC, P CD, and P DA respectively. Prove that the midpoints
    segments O1 O3 , O2 O4 , and OP are collinear.
    4. Consider an acute-angled triangle ABC. Let P be the foot of the altitude
    of triangle ABC issuing from vertrex A, and let O be the circumcenter of
    triangle ABC. Assume that ̸ C ≥ ̸ B + 30◦ . Prove that ̸ A + ̸ COP <
    90◦ .

    4 Problems: easier than 60M


    1. Let ABC be a triangle with incenter I and contact triangle DEF . Let M
    be the foot of the perpendicular from D to EF and let P be the midpoint
    of DM . If H is the orthocenter of triangle BIC, prove that P H bisects
    EF .
    2. Let ABC be an acute triangle with circumcircle Γ. Let ℓ be a tangent line
    to Γ, and let ℓa , ℓb , and ℓc be the lines obtained by reflecting ℓ in the sides
    BC, CA and AB respectively. Show that the circumcircle of the triangle
    determined by the lines ℓa , ℓb , and ℓc is tangent to the circle Γ.
    3. Let ABC be a triangle with circumcircle Γ and let M be an arbitrary point
    on Γ. Suppose the tangents from M to the incircle of ABC intersect BC
    at two distinct points X1 and X2 . Prove that the circumcircle of triangle
    M X1 X2 passes through the tangency point of the A-mixtilinear incircle
    with Γ.

    4. In scalene triangle ABC with incenter I, the incircle is tangent to sides CA


    and AB at points E and F . The tangents to the circumcircle of △AEF
    at E and F meet at S. Lines EF and BC intersect at T . Prove that the
    circle with diameter ST is orthogonal to the nine-point circle of △BIC.
