  • Answer

In a triangle ABCA B C, let Ma,Mb,McM_{a}, M_{b}, M_{c} be respectively the midpoints of the sides BC,CAB C, C A, ABA B and Ta,Tb,TcT_{a}, T_{b}, T_{c} be the midpoints of the arcs⁡BC,CA,AB\operatorname{arcs} B C, C A, A B of the circumcircle of ABCA B C, not containing the opposite vertices. For i∈{a,b,c}i \in\{a, b, c\}, let ωi\omega_{i} be the circle with MiTiM_{i} T_{i} as diameter. Let pip_{i} be the common external tangent to ωj,ωk({i,j,k}={a,b,c})\omega_{j}, \omega_{k}(\{i, j, k\}=\{a, b, c\}) such that ωi\omega_{i} lies on the opposite side of pip_{i} than ωj,ωk\omega_{j}, \omega_{k} do. Prove that the lines pa,pb,pcp_{a}, p_{b}, p_{c} form a triangle similar to ABCA B C and find the ratio of similitude. (Slovakia)
