1985 IMO Longlists, 97

In a plane a circle with radius $R$ and center $w$ and a line $\Lambda$ are given. The distance between $w$ and $\Lambda$ is $d, d > R$. The points $M$ and $N$ are chosen on $\Lambda$ in such a way that the circle with diameter $MN$ is externally tangent to the given circle. Show that there exists a point $A$ in the plane such that all the segments $MN$ are seen in a constant angle from $A.$

Let $m, n, k$ be positive integers such that $k\le mn$. Let $S$ be the set consisting of the $(m + 1)$-by-$(n + 1)$ rectangular array of points on the Cartesian plane with coordinates $(i, j)$ where $i, j$ are integers satisfying $0\le i\le m$ and $0\le j\le n$.

[b]9.[/b] Lep $p$ be a connected non-closed broken line without self-intersection in the plane $\varphi $. Prove that if $v$ is a non-zero vector in $\varphi $ and $p$ has a commom point with the broken line $p+v$, then $p$ has a common point with the broken line $p+\alpha v$ too, where $\alpha =\frac{1}{n}$ and $n$ is a positive integer. Does a similar statemente hold for other positive values of $\alpha$? ($p+v$ denotes the broken line obtained from $p$ through displacemente by the vector $v$.) [b](G. 1)[/b]
