Show that the circumradius $R$ of a triangle $ABC$ equals the arithmetic mean of the oriented distances from its incenter $I$ and three excenters $I_a,I_b, I_c$ to any tangent $\tau$ to its circumcircle. In other words, if $\delta(P)$ denotes the distance from a point $P$ to $\tau$, then with appropriate choices of signs, we have
$$\delta(I) \pm \delta_(I_a) \pm \delta_(I_b) \pm \delta_(I_c) = 4R$$

Let points $P_1, P_2, P_3$, and $P_4$ be arranged around a circle in that order. (One possible example is drawn in Diagram 1.) Next draw a line through $P_4$ parallel to $P_1P_2$, intersecting the circle again at $P_5$. (If the line happens to be tangent to the circle, we simply take $P_5 =P_4$, as in Diagram 2. In other words, we consider the second intersection to be the point of tangency again.) Repeat this process twice more, drawing a line through $P_5$ parallel to $P_2P_3$, intersecting the circle again at $P_6$, and finally drawing a line through $P_6$ parallel to $P_3P_4$, intersecting the circle again at $P_7$. Prove that $P_7$ is the same point as $P_1$.
