The quadrilateral $ABCD$ is inscribed in a circle of radius $1$, so that $AB$ is a diameter of the circumference and $CD = 1$. A variable point $X$ moves along the semicircle determined by $AB$ that does not contain $C$ or $D$. Determine the position of $X$ for which the sum of the distances from $X$ to lines $BC, CD$ and $DA$ is maximum.

Consider a fixed circle $\Gamma$ with three fixed points $A, B,$ and $C$ on it. Also, let us fix a real number $\lambda \in(0,1)$. For a variable point $P \not\in\{A, B, C\}$ on $\Gamma$, let $M$ be the point on the segment $CP$ such that $CM =\lambda\cdot CP$ . Let $Q$ be the second point of intersection of the circumcircles of the triangles $AMP$ and $BMC$. Prove that as $P$ varies, the point $Q$ lies on a fixed circle.

[i]The Marathon.[/i] Let $\omega$ denote the incircle of triangle $ABC$. The segments $BC$, $CA$, and $AB$ are tangent to $\omega$ at $D$, $E$ and $F$, respectively. Point $P$ lies on $EF$ such that segment $PD$ is perpendicular to $BC$. The line $AP$ intersects $BC$ at $Q$. The circles $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$ pass through $B$ and $C$, respectively, and are tangent to $AQ$ at $Q$; the former meets $AB$ again at $X$, and the latter meets $AC$ again at $Y$. The line $XY$ intersects $BC$ at $Z$. Given that $AB=15$, $BC=14$, and $CA=13$, find $\lfloor XZ\cdot YZ\rfloor$.

It is well-known that if a quadrilateral has the circumcircle and the incircle with the same centre then it is a square. Is the similar statement true in 3 dimensions: namely, if a cuboid is inscribed into a sphere and circumscribed around a sphere and the centres of the spheres coincide, does it imply that the cuboid is a cube? (A cuboid is a polyhedron with 6 quadrilateral faces such that each vertex belongs to $3$ edges.)

Let $ABCD$ be a cyclic quadrilateral inscribed in a circle $\omega$ with center $O$. The lines $AD$ and $BC$ meet at $E$, while the lines $AB$ and $CD$ meet at $F$. Let $P$ be a point on the segment $EF$ such that $OP \perp EF$. The circle $\Gamma_{1}$ passes through $A$ and $E$ and is tangent to $\omega$ at $A$, while $\Gamma_{2}$ passes through $C$ and $F$ and is tangent to $\omega$ at $C$. If $\Gamma_{1}$ and $\Gamma_{2}$ meet at $X$ and $Y$, prove that $PO$ is the bisector of $\angle XPY$.
