All sides of triangle $ABC$ are different. On rays $B A$ and $C A$ the segments $B K$ and $CM$ are laid out, equal to side $BC$. Let us denote by $x$ the length of the segment $KM$. In the same way, by plotting the side $AC$ on the rays $AB$ and $CB$ from $A$ and $C$, we obtain a segment of length $y$, and by plotting the side AB on the rays $AC$ and $BC$, we obtain a segment of length $z$. a) Prove that a triangle can be formed from the segments $x$, $y$ and $z$, and this triangle is similar to triangle $ABC$. b) Find the radius of the circumcircle of a triangle with sides $x$, $y$ and $z$, if the radii of the circumscribed and inscribed circles of triangle $ABC$ are equal to $R$ and $r$ respectively.
