Acute triangle $ABC$ has altitudes $AD$, $BE$, and $CF$. Point $D$ is projected onto $AB$ and $AC$ to points $D_c$ and $D_b$ respectively. Likewise, $E$ is projected to $E_a$ on $BC$ and $E_c$ on $AB$, and $F$ is projected to $F_a$ on $BC$ and $F_b$ on $AC$. Lines $D_bD_c$, $E_cE_a$, $F_aF_b$ bound a triangle of area $T_1$, and lines $E_cF_b$, $D_bE_a$, $F_aD_c$ bound a triangle of area $T_2$. What is the smallest possible value of the ratio $T_2/T_1$?

In a convex quadrilateral $ABCD$, the diagonals are perpendicular to each other and they intersect at $E$. Let $P$ be a point on the side $AD$ which is different from $A$ such that $PE=EC.$ The circumcircle of triangle $BCD$ intersects the side $AD$ at $Q$ where $Q$ is also different from $A$.
