    The circles aa and bb intersect at two distinct points PP and QQ. Suppose that A0A_0 is a point that lies on circle aa. Define the points B0B_0, A1A_1, B1B_1, A2A_2 etc., respectively, as follows: BiB_i is the intersection of line AiPA_iP with bb, and then Ai+1A_{i+1} is the intersection of line BiQB_iQ with aa. (If Ai=PA_i = P then line AiPA_iP means the tangent of circle aa at PP, and if Bi=QB_i = Q then line BiQB_iQ means the tangent of circle bb at QQ.) Show that if there exists an AnA_n (n≥2n\ge 2) for which A0A_0 and AnA_n coincide, then this holds for any point A0A_0 of circle aa.
