Given an acute triangle $ABC$ with $AB <AC$. Points $P$ and $Q$ lie on the angle bisector of $\angle BAC$ so that $BP$ and $CQ$ are perpendicular on that angle bisector. Suppose that point $E, F$ lie respectively at sides $AB$ and $AC$ respectively, in such a way that $AEPF$ is a kite. Prove that the lines $BC, PF$, and $QE$ intersect at one point.

(1) Show that the point $(f(t),\ g(t))$ lies on the curve $C$. (2) Find the normal line of the curve $C$ at the point $\left(\lim_{t\rightarrow 0} f(t),\ \lim_{t\rightarrow 0} g(t)\right).$ (3) Let $V(a)$ be the volume of the solid generated by a rotation of the part enclosed by the curve $C$, the nornal line found in (2) and the $x$-axis.

A sequence of positive integers is constructed as follows. If the last digit of $a_n$ is greater than $5$, then $a_{n+1}$ is $9a_n$. If the last digit of $a_n$ is $5$ or less and an has more than one digit, then $a_{n+1}$ is obtained from $a_n$ by deleting the last digit. If $a_n$ has only one digit, which is $5$ or less, then the sequence terminates. Can we choose the first member of the sequence so that it does not terminate?
