In the plane let two circles be given which intersect at two points $A, B$; Let $PT$ be one of the two common tangent line of these circles ($P, T$ are points of tangency). Tangents at $P$ and $T$ of the circumcircle of triangle $APT$ meet each other at $S$. Let $H$ be a point symmetric to $B$ under $PT$. Show that $A, S, H$ are collinear.

Let $ABC$ be an acute scalene triangle with orthocenter $H$. Let $M$ be the midpoint of $BC$. $N$ is the point on line $AM$ such that $(BMN)$ is tangent to $AB$. Finally, let $H'$ be the reflection of $H$ in $B$. Prove that $\angle ANH'=90^{\circ}$. [i]Proposed by Malay Mahajan and Siddharth Choppara[/i]
