Let $ABCD$ be a rectangle and $E$ be a point on segment $AD$. We are given that quadrilateral $BCDE$ has an inscribed circle $\omega_1$ that is tangent to $BE$ at $T$. If the incircle $\omega_2$ of $ABE$ is also tangent to $BE$ at $T$, then find the ratio of the radius of $\omega_1$ to the radius of $\omega_2$.

A lattice point is a point $(x, y)$ with both $x$ and $y$ integers. Find, with proof, the smallest $n$ such that every set of $n$ lattice points contains three points that are the vertices of a triangle with integer area. (The triangle may be degenerate, in other words, the three points may lie on a straight line and hence form a triangle with area zero.)
