Let points $A_1$, $A_2$ and $A_3$ lie on the circle $\Gamma$ in a counter-clockwise order, and let $P$ be a point in the same plane. For $i \in \{1,2,3\}$, let $\tau_i$ denote the counter-clockwise rotation of the plane centred at $A_i$, where the angle of rotation is equial to the angle at vertex $A_i$ in $\triangle A_1A_2A_3$. Further, define $P_i$ to be the point $\tau_{i+2}(\tau_{i}(\tau_{i+1}(P)))$, where the indices are taken modulo $3$ (i.e., $\tau_4 = \tau_1$ and $\tau_5 = \tau_2$).
Prove that the radius of the circumcircle of $\triangle P_1P_2P_3$ is at most the radius of $\Gamma$.

Given a set $ \mathcal{H}$ of points in the plane, $ P$ is called an "intersection point of $ \mathcal{H}$" if distinct points $ A,B,C,D$ exist in $ \mathcal{H}$ such that lines $ AB$ and $ CD$ are distinct and intersect in $ P$.
Given a finite set $ \mathcal{A}_{0}$ of points in the plane, a sequence of sets is defined as follows: for any $ j\geq0$, $ \mathcal{A}_{j+1}$ is the union of $ \mathcal{A}_{j}$ and the intersection points of $ \mathcal{A}_{j}$.
Prove that, if the union of all the sets in the sequence is finite, then $ \mathcal{A}_{i}=\mathcal{A}_{1}$ for any $ i\geq1$.

Define the [i]inverse [/i] of triangle $ABC$ with respect to a point $O$ in the following way: construct the circumcircle of $ABC$ and construct lines $AO$, $BO$, and $CO$. Let $A'$ be the other intersection of $AO$ and the circumcircle (if $AO$ is tangent, then let $A' = A$). Similarly define $B'$ and $C'$. Then $A'B'C'$ is the inverse of $ABC$ with respect to $O$. Compute the area of the inverse of the triangle given in the plane by $A(-6, -21)$, $B(-23, 10)$, $C(16, 23)$ with respect to $O(1, 3)$.
