A quadrilateral \( ABCD \) with no parallel sides is inscribed in a circle \( \Omega \). Circles \( \omega_a, \omega_b, \omega_c, \omega_d \) are inscribed in triangles \( DAB, ABC, BCD, CDA \), respectively. Common external tangents are drawn between \( \omega_a \) and \( \omega_b \), \( \omega_b \) and \( \omega_c \), \( \omega_c \) and \( \omega_d \), and \( \omega_d \) and \( \omega_a \), not containing any sides of quadrilateral \( ABCD \). A quadrilateral whose consecutive sides lie on these four lines is inscribed in a circle \( \Gamma \). Prove that the lines joining the centers of \( \omega_a \) and \( \omega_c \), \( \omega_b \) and \( \omega_d \), and the centers of \( \Omega \) and \( \Gamma \) all intersect at one point. \\

There is a convex polyhedron with $k$ faces.
Show that if more than $k/2$ of the faces are such that no two have a common edge,
then the polyhedron cannot have an inscribed sphere.

On sides $BC$, $CA$, $AB$ of triangle $ABC$, points $A_1$, $B_1$, $C_1$ are chosen, respectively, so that the medians $A_1A_2$, $B_1B_2$, $C_1C_2$ of the triangle $A_1B_1C_1$ are respectively parallel to straight lines $AB$, $BC$, $CA$.

Let $ABC$ be a non isosceles triangle with circumcircle $(O)$ and incircle $(I)$. Denote $(O_1)$ as the circle internal tangent to $(O)$ at $A_1$ and also tangent to segments $AB,AC$ at $A_b,A_c$ respectively. Define the circles $(O_2), (O_3)$ and the points $B_1, C_1, B_c , B_a, C_a, C_b$ similarly.

Around the convex quadrilateral $ABCD$, three rectangles are circumscribed .
It is known that two of these rectangles are squares. Is it true that the third one is necessarily a square?

The student drew a right triangle $ABC$ on the board with a right angle at the vertex $B$ and inscribed in it an equilateral triangle $KMP$ such that the points $K, M, P$ lie on the sides $AB, BC, AC$, respectively, and $KM \parallel AC$. Then the picture was erased, leaving only points $A, P$ and $C$. Restore erased points and lines.
In triangle $ABC$ we inscribe a square such that one of the sides of the square lies on the side $AC$, and the other two vertices lie on sides $AB$ and $BC$. Furthermore we know that $AC = 5$, $BC = 4$ and $AB = 3$. This square cuts out three smaller triangles from $\vartriangle ABC$. Express the sum of reciprocals of the inradii of these three small triangles as a fraction $p/q$ in lowest terms (i.e. with $p$ and $q$ coprime). What is $p + q$?

A rectangle, whose one sidelength is twice the other side, is inscribed inside a triangles with sides $3$ cm, $4$ cm and $5$ cm, such that the long sides lies entirely on the long side of the triangle. The other two remaining vertices of the rectangle lie respectively on the other two sides of the triangle. Find the lengths of the sides of this rectangle.
