IMO 2012 Problem 1

  • Day 1

Given triangle ABCABC the point JJ is the centre of the excircle opposite the vertex A.A. This excircle is tangent to the side BCBC at MM , and to the lines ABAB and ACAC at KK and LL , respectively. The lines LMLM and BJBJ meet at FF , and the lines KMKM and CJCJ meet at G.G. Let SS be the point of intersection of the lines AFAF and BCBC , and let TT be the point of intersection of the lines AGAG and BC.BC. Prove that MM is the midpoint of ST.ST. (The excircle of ABCABC opposite the vertex AA is the circle that is tangent to the line segment BCBC , to the ray ABAB beyond BB , and to the ray ACAC beyond CC .)
