The equilateral triangle $ABC$ is inscribed in the circle $w$. Points $F$ and $E$ on the sides $AB$ and $AC$, respectively, are chosen such that $\angle ABE+ \angle ACF = 60^o$. The circumscribed circle of $\vartriangle AFE$ intersects the circle $w$ at the point $D$ for the second time. The rays $DE$ and $DF$ intersect the line $BC$ at the points $X$ and $Y$, respectively. Prove that the center of the inscribed circle of $\vartriangle DXY$ does not depend on the choice of points $F$ and $E$. (Hilko Danilo)

Square $ABCD$ has sides of length 1. Points $E$ and $F$ are on $\overline{BC}$ and $\overline{CD}$, respectively, so that $\triangle AEF$ is equilateral. A square with vertex $B$ has sides that are parallel to those of $ABCD$ and a vertex on $\overline{AE}$. The length of a side of this smaller square is $\displaystyle \frac{a-\sqrt{b}}{c}$, where $a$, $b$, and $c$ are positive integers and $b$ is not divisible by the square of any prime. Find $a+b+c$.

In $\triangle ADE$, $\measuredangle ADE=140^\circ$, points $B$ and $C$ lie on sides $AD$ and $AE$, respectively, and points $A,~B,~C,~D,~E$ are distinct.* If lengths $AB,~BC,~CD,$ and $DE$ are all equal, then the measure of $\measuredangle EAD$ is $\textbf{(A) }5^\circ\qquad\textbf{(B) }6^\circ\qquad\textbf{(C) }7.5^\circ\qquad\textbf{(D) }8^\circ\qquad \textbf{(E) }10^\circ$ [size=50]* The specification that points $A,B,C,D,E$ be distinct was not included in the original statement of the problem. If $B=D$, then $C=E$ and $\measuredangle EAD=20^\circ$.[/size]
