2020 Iranian Geometry Olympiad, 3

In acute-angled triangle $ABC$ ($AC > AB$), point $H$ is the orthocenter and point $M$ is the midpoint of the segment $BC$. The median $AM$ intersects the circumcircle of triangle $ABC$ at $X$. The line $CH$ intersects the perpendicular bisector of $BC$ at $E$ and the circumcircle of the triangle $ABC$ again at $F$. Point $J$ lies on circle $\omega$, passing through $X, E,$ and $F$, such that $BCHJ$ is a trapezoid ($CB \parallel HJ$). Prove that $JB$ and $EM$ meet on $\omega$.

Let $ ABC $ be a right triangle in $ A, $ and let be a point $ D $ on $ BC. $ The bisectors of $ \angle ADB $ and $ \angle ADC $ intersect $ AB $ and $ AC $ (respectively) in $ M $ and $ N $ (respectively).

A Mathlon is a competition where there are $M$ athletic events. $A, B$ and $C$ were the only participants of a Mathlon. In each event, $p_1$ points were given to the first place, $p_2$ points to the second place and $p_3$ points to third place, with $p_1> p_2> p_3> 0$ where $p_1$, $p_2$ and $p_3$ are integer numbers. The final result was $22$ points for $A$, $9$ for $B$, and $9$ for $C$. $B$ won the $100$ meter dash. Determine $M$ and who was the second in high jump.
