RMM 2010 Problem 3

  • Day 1

Let A1A2A3A4A_1A_2A_3A_4 be a quadrilateral with no pair of parallel sides. For each i=1,2,3,4i=1, 2, 3, 4 , define ω1\omega_1 to be the circle touching the quadrilateral externally, and which is tangent to the lines Ai−1Ai,AiAi+1A_{i-1}A_i, A_iA_{i+1} and Ai+1Ai+2A_{i+1}A_{i+2} (indices are considered modulo 44 so A0=A4,A5=A1A_0=A_4, A_5=A_1 and A6=A2A_6=A_2 ). Let TiT_i be the point of tangency of ωi\omega_i with the side AiAi+1A_iA_{i+1} . Prove that the lines A1A2,A3A4A_1A_2, A_3A_4 and T2T4T_2T_4 are concurrent if and only if the lines A2A3,A4A1A_2A_3, A_4A_1 and T1T3T_1T_3 are concurrent.
