Let $ABC$ be a triangle. Suppose that $D$, $E$, and $F$ are points on segments $\overline{BC}$, $\overline{CA}$, and $\overline{AB}$ respectively such that triangles $AEF$, $BFD$, and $CDE$ have equal inradii. Prove that the sum of the inradii of $\triangle AEF$ and $\triangle DEF$ is equal to the inradius of $\triangle ABC$. [i]Aprameya Tripathy[/i]

Let $ABC$ be a triangle, and let $D$ be a point on the internal angle bisector of $BAC$. Let $x$ be the ellipse with foci $B$ and $C$ passing through $D$, $y$ be the ellipse with foci $A$ and $C$ passing through $D$, and $z$ be the ellipse with foci $A$ and $B$ passing through $D$. Ellipses $x$ and $z$ intersect at distinct points $D$ and $E$, and ellipses $x$ and $y$ intersect at distinct points $D$ and $F$. Prove that $AD$ bisects angle $EAF$. [i]Andrew Carratu[/i]

Given a positive integer $k$, find all polynomials $P$ of degree $k$ with integer coefficients such that for all positive integers $n$ where all of $P(n)$, $P(2024n)$, $P(2024^2n)$ are nonzero, we have $$\frac{\gcd(P(2024n), P(2024^2n))}{\gcd(P(n), P(2024n))}=2024^k.$$ [i]Allen Wang[/i]

Let $\triangle ABC$ be an acute triangle with circumcenter $O$ such that $AB<AC$, let $Q$ be the intersection of the external bisector of $\angle A$ with $BC$, and let $P$ be a point in the interior of $\triangle ABC$ such that $\triangle BPA$ is similar to $\triangle APC$. Show that $\angle QPA + \angle OQB = 90^{\circ}$. [i]Alex Zhu.[/i]
