Let $ ABCD$ be a convex quadrilateral and let $ P$ and $ Q$ be points in $ ABCD$ such that $ PQDA$ and $ QPBC$ are cyclic quadrilaterals. Suppose that there exists a point $ E$ on the line segment $ PQ$ such that $ \angle PAE \equal{} \angle QDE$ and $ \angle PBE \equal{} \angle QCE$. Show that the quadrilateral $ ABCD$ is cyclic.

In triangle $ABC$ with incenter $I$ and circumcenter $O$, let $A',B',C'$ be the points of tangency of its circumcircle with its $A,B,C$-mixtilinear circles, respectively. Let $\omega_A$ be the circle through $A'$ that is tangent to $AI$ at $I$, and define $\omega_B, \omega_C$ similarly. Prove that $\omega_A,\omega_B,\omega_C$ have a common point $X$ other than $I$, and that $\angle AXO = \angle OXA'$. [i]Proposed by Sammy Luo[/i]

Let $ABC$ be a triangle with circumcircle $\omega$, incenter $I$, and $A$-excenter $I_A$. Let the incircle and the $A$-excircle hit $BC$ at $D$ and $E$, respectively, and let $M$ be the midpoint of arc $BC$ without $A$. Consider the circle tangent to $BC$ at $D$ and arc $BAC$ at $T$. If $TI$ intersects $\omega$ again at $S$, prove that $SI_A$ and $ME$ meet on $\omega$. [i]Amol Aggarwal.[/i]
