In triangle $ABC$, $X$ and $Y$ are the tangency points of incircle (with center $I$) with sides $AB$ and $AC$ respectively. A tangent line to the circumcircle of triangle $ABC$ (with center $O$) at point $A$, intersects the extension of $BC$ at $D$. If $D,X$ and $Y$ are collinear then prove that $D,I$ and $O$ are also collinear. [i]proposed by Amirhossein Zabeti[/i]

Each of Mahdi and Morteza has drawn an inscribed $93$-gon. Denote the first one by $A_1A_2…A_{93}$ and the second by $B_1B_2…B_{93}$. It is known that $A_iA_{i+1} // B_iB_{i+1}$ for $1 \le i \le 93$ ($A_{93} = A_1, B_{93} = B_1$). Show that $\frac{A_iA_{i+1} }{ B_iB_{i+1}}$ is a constant number independent of $i$. by Morteza Saghafian
