This is a slight extension of the [url=http://www.mathlinks.ro/Forum/viewtopic.php?t=41033]IMO Shortlist 2004 geometry problem 7[/url] and can be found, together with the proposed solution, among the files uploaded at http://www.mathlinks.ro/Forum/viewtopic.php?t=15622 . Note that the problem was proposed by Russia. I could not find the names of the authors, but I have two particular persons under suspicion. Maybe somebody could shade some light on this...
