Let $ \mathcal P$ be a parabola, and let $ V_1$ and $ F_1$ be its vertex and focus, respectively. Let $ A$ and $ B$ be points on $ \mathcal P$ so that $ \angle AV_1 B \equal{} 90^\circ$. Let $ \mathcal Q$ be the locus of the midpoint of $ AB$. It turns out that $ \mathcal Q$ is also a parabola, and let $ V_2$ and $ F_2$ denote its vertex and focus, respectively. Determine the ratio $ F_1F_2/V_1V_2$.
The perimeter of triangle $APM$ is $152,$ and the angle $PAM$ is a right angle. A circle of radius $19$ with center $O$ on $\overline{AP}$ is drawn so that it is tangent to $\overline{AM}$ and $\overline{PM}.$ Given that $OP=m/n,$ where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers, find $m+n.$
Cosider ellipse $\epsilon$ with two foci $A$ and $B$ such that the lengths of it's major axis and minor axis are $2a$ and $2b$ respectively. From a point $T$ outside of the ellipse, we draw two tangent lines $TP$ and $TQ$ to the ellipse $\epsilon$. Prove that
\[\frac{TP}{TQ}\ge \frac{b}{a}.\]

Fix a point $A$, a circle $\Omega$ centered at $O$, and reals $r$ and $\theta$. Let $X$ and $Y$ be variable points on $\Omega$ so that $\measuredangle XOY = \theta$.

$ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ Suppose that some point $P^*$ is the same for two different $X$. Show that $\measuredangle TXY = \measuredangle AP^\ast O$. (All angles are directed.)
