Kyiv City MO Juniors 2003+ geometry, 2018.9.5

Given a triangle $ABC$, the perpendicular bisector of the side $AC$ intersects the angle bisector of the triangle $AK$ at the point $P$, $M$ - such a point that $\angle MAC = \angle PCB$, $\angle MPA = \angle CPK$, and points $M$ and $K$ lie on opposite sides of the line $AC$. Prove that the line $AK$ bisects the segment $BM$. (Anton Trygub)

$3n$ ($n \ge 2, n \in N$) people attend a gathering, in which any two acquaintances have exactly $n$ common acquaintances, and any two unknown people have exactly $2n$ common acquaintances. If three people know each other, it is called a [i]Taoyuan Group[/i]. (1) Find the number of all Taoyuan groups; (2) Prove that these $3n$ people can be divided into three groups, with $n$ people in each group, and the three people obtained by randomly selecting one person from each group constitute a Taoyuan group. Note: Acquaintance means that two people know each other, otherwise they are not acquaintances. Two people who know each other are called acquaintances.

Suppose we have a $n$-gon. Some $n-3$ diagonals are coloured black and some other $n-3$ diagonals are coloured red (a side is not a diagonal), so that no two diagonals of the same colour can intersect strictly inside the polygon, although they can share a vertex.
