Through point $ P $ inside triangle $ ABC $, straight lines were drawn, parallel to the sides, until they intersect with the sides. In the three resulting parallelograms, diagonals that do not contain point $ P $, are drawn. Points $ A_1 $, $ B_1 $ and $ C_1 $ are the intersection points of the lines containing these diagonals such that $A_1$ and $A$ are in different sides of line $BC$ and $B_1$ and $C_1$ are similar. Prove that if hexagon $ AC_1BA_1CB_1 $ is inscribed and convex, then point $ P $ is the orthocenter of triangle $ A_1B_1C_1 $.

There are $ m \plus{} 1$ horizontal lines and $ m$ vertical lines on the plane so that $ m(m \plus{} 1)$ intersections are made. A mark is placed at one of the $ m$ points of the lowest horizontal line. 2 players play the game of the following rules on this lines and points. 1. Each player moves a mark from a point to a point along the lines in turns. 2. The segment is erased after a mark moved along it. 3. When a player cannot make a move, then he loses. Prove that the lead always wins the game. PS I haven't found a student who solved it. There can be no one.
