  • Day 2

Let ABCABC be an acute triangle with circumcircle Γ\Gamma . Let ℓ\ell be a tangent line to Γ\Gamma , and let ℓa,ℓb\ell_a, \ell_b and ℓc\ell_c be the lines obtained by reflecting ℓ\ell in the lines BCBC , CACA and ABAB , respectively. Show that the circumcircle of the triangle determined by the lines ℓa,ℓb\ell_a, \ell_b and ℓc\ell_c is tangent to the circle Γ\Gamma .
