(M. Volchkevich)
Point $O$ is the intersection point of the heights of an acute triangle $\vartriangle ABC$. Prove that the three circles which pass:
a) through $O, A, B$,

Given three circumferences of the same radius in a plane.
a) All three are crossing in one point $K$. Consider three arcs $AK,CK,EK$ : the $A,C,E$ are the points of the circumferences intersection and the arcs are taken in the clockwise direction. Every arc is inside one circle, outside the second and on the border of the third one. Prove that the sum of the arcs is $180$ degrees.
b) Consider the case, when the three circles give a curvilinear triangle $BDF$ as their intersection (instead of one point $K$). The arcs are taken in the clockwise direction. Every arc is inside one circle, outside the second and on the border of the third one. Prove that the sum of the $AB, CD$ and $EF$ arcs is $180$ degrees.
