Let $ C_1,C_2$ and $ C_3$ be three pairwise disjoint circles. For each pair of disjoint circles, we define their internal tangent lines as the two common tangents which intersect in a point between the two centres. For each $ i,j$, we define $ (r_{ij},s_{ij})$ as the two internal tangent lines of $ (C_i,C_j)$. Let $ r_{12},r_{23},r_{13},s_{12},s_{13},s_{23}$ be the sides of $ ABCA'B'C'$.
Prove that $ AA',BB'$ and $ CC'$ are concurrent.

Albrecht likes to draw hexagons with all sides having equal length. He calls an angle of such a hexagon [i]nice [/i] if it is exactly $120^o$. He writes the number of its nice angles inside each hexagon. How many different numbers could Albrecht write inside the hexagons? Show examples for as many values as possible and give a reasoning why others cannot appear.
[i]Albrecht can also draw concave hexagons[/i]
