Let $ ABCD$ be a convex quadrilateral such that the sides $ AB, AD, BC$ satisfy $ AB \equal{} AD \plus{} BC.$ There exists a point $ P$ inside the quadrilateral at a distance $ h$ from the line $ CD$ such that $ AP \equal{} h \plus{} AD$ and $ BP \equal{} h \plus{} BC.$ Show that:
\[ \frac {1}{\sqrt {h}} \geq \frac {1}{\sqrt {AD}} \plus{} \frac {1}{\sqrt {BC}}

Let $ ABCD$ be a convex quadrilateral with $ BA\neq BC$. Denote the incircles of triangles $ ABC$ and $ ADC$ by $ \omega_{1}$ and $ \omega_{2}$ respectively. Suppose that there exists a circle $ \omega$ tangent to ray $ BA$ beyond $ A$ and to the ray $ BC$ beyond $ C$, which is also tangent to the lines $ AD$ and $ CD$. Prove that the common external tangents to $ \omega_{1}$ and $\omega_{2}$ intersect on $ \omega$.

There exists point $O$ inside a convex quadrilateral $ABCD$ satisfying $OA=OB$ and $OC=OD$, and $\angle AOB = \angle COD=90^{\circ}$. Consider two squares, (1)square having $AC$ as one side and located in the opposite side of $B$ and (2)square having $BD$ as one side and located in the opposite side of $E$. If the common part of these two squares is also a square, prove that $ABCD$ is an inscribed quadrilateral.
