Triangle $ABC$ is inscribed in circle $\gamma_1$ with radius $r_1$. Let $\gamma_2$ (with radius $r_2$) be the circle internally tangent to $\gamma_1$ at $A$ and tangent to $BC$ at $D$. Let $I$ be the incenter of $ABC$, and $P$ and $Q$ be the intersection of $\gamma_2$ with $AB$ and $AC$ respectively. Given that $P$, $I$, and $Q$ are collinear, $AI=25$, and the circumradius of triangle $BIC$ is $24$, compute the ratio of the radii $\tfrac{r_2}{r_1}$.

Consider two concentric circles $\Omega$ and $\omega$. Chord $AD$ of the circle $\Omega$ is tangent to $\omega$. Inside the minor disk segment $AD$ of $\Omega$, an arbitrary point $P{}$ is selected. The tangent lines drawn from the point $P{}$ to the circle $\omega$ intersect the major arc $AD$ of the circle $\Omega$ at points $B{}$ and $C{}$. The line segments $BD$ and $AC$ intersect at the point $Q{}$. Prove that the line segment $PQ$ passes through the midpoint of line segment $AD$. [i]Note.[/i] A circle together with its interior is called a disk, and a chord $XY$ of the circle divides the disk into disk segments, a minor disk segment $XY$ (the one of smaller area) and a major disk segment $XY$.
