Consider a cyclic quadrilateral such that the midpoints of its sides form another cyclic quadrilateral. Prove that the area of the smaller circle is less than or equal to half the area of the bigger circle
Cyclic quadrilateral $ABCD$ has positive integer side lengths $AB$, $BC$, $CA$, $AD$. It is known that $AD=2005$, $\angle{ABC}=\angle{ADC} = 90^o$, and $\max \{ AB,BC,CD \} < 2005$. Determine the maximum and minimum possible values for the perimeter of $ABCD$.

Refer to the diagram below. Let $ABCD$ be a cyclic quadrilateral with center $O$. Let the internal angle bisectors of $\angle A$ and $\angle C$ intersect at $I$ and let those of $\angle B$ and $\angle D$ intersect at $J$. Now extend $AB$ and $CD$ to intersect $IJ$ and $P$ and $R$ respectively and let $IJ$ intersect $BC$ and $DA$ at $Q$ and $S$ respectively. Let the midpoints of $PR$ and $QS$ be $M$ and $N$ respectively. Given that $O$ does not lie on the line $IJ$, show that $OM$ and $ON$ are perpendicular.

$ABCD$ is a convex quadrangle, $G$ is its center of gravity as a homogeneous plate (i.e., the intersection point of two lines, each of which connects the centroids of triangles having a common diagonal).
a) Suppose that around $ABCD$ we can circumscribe a circle centered on $O$. We define $H$ similarly to $G$, taking orthocenters instead of centroids. Then the points of $H, G, O$ lie on the same line and $HG: GO = 2: 1$.
b) Suppose that in $ABCD$ we can inscribe a circle centered on $I$. The Nagel point N of the circumscribed quadrangle is the intersection point of two lines, each of which passes through points on opposite sides of the quadrangle that are symmetric to the tangent points of the inscribed circle relative to the midpoints of the sides. (These lines divide the perimeter of the quadrangle in half). Then $N, G, I$ lie on one straight line, with $NG: GI = 2: 1$.
