Angle bisectors from vertices $B$ and $C$ and the perpendicular bisector of side $BC$ are drawn in a non-isosceles triangle $ABC$. Next, three points of pairwise intersection of these three lines were marked (remembering which point is which), and the triangle itself was erased. Restore it according to the marked points using a compass and ruler. (Yu. Blinkov)
In quadrilateral $ABCD$, sides $AB$ and $CD$ are equal (but not parallel), points $M$ and $N$ are the midpoints of $AD$ and $BC$. The perpendicular bisector of $MN$ intersects sides $AB$ and $CD$ at points $P$ and $Q$, respectively. Prove that $AP = CQ$. (M. Kungozhin)
In triangle $ABC$, angle $C$ is equal to $60^o$. Bisectors $AA'$ and $BB'$ intersect at point $I$. Point $K$ is symmetric to $I$ with respect to line $AB$. Prove that lines $CK$ and $A'B'$ are perpendicular. (D. Shvetsov, A. Zaslavsky)
Given a circle and a straight line $AB$ passing through its center (points $A$ and $B$ are fixed, $A$ is outside the circle, and $B$ is inside). Find the locus of the intersection of lines $AX$ and $BY$, where $XY$ is an arbitrary diameter of the circle. (A. Akopyan, A. Zaslavsky)
In an acute non-isosceles triangle $ABC$, the inscribed circle touches side $BC$ at point $T, Q$ is the midpoint of altitude $AK$, $P$ is the orthocenter of the triangle formed by the bisectors of angles $B$ and $C$ and line $AK$. Prove that the points $P, Q$ and $T$ lie on the same line. (D. Prokopenko)

In a circle with center $O$, chords $AB$ and $AC$ are drawn, both equal to the radius. Points $A_1$, $B_1$ and $C_1$ are projections of points $A, B$ and $C$, respectively, onto an arbitrary diameter $XY$. Prove that one of the segments $XB_1$, $OA_1$ and $C_1Y$ is equal to the sum of the other two. (A. Shklover)
In an acute triangle $ABC$,$O$ is the center of the circumscribed circle $\omega$, $P$ is the point of intersection of the tangents to $\omega$ through the points $B$ and $C$, the median AM intersects the circle $\omega$ at point $D$. Prove that points $A, D, P$ and $O$ lie on the same circle. (D. Prokopenko)
Extensions of opposite sides of a convex quadrilateral $ABCD$ intersect at points $P$ and $Q$. Points are marked on the sides of $ABCD$ (one per side), which are the vertices of a parallelogram with a side parallel to $PQ$. Prove that the intersection point of the diagonals of this parallelogram lies on one of the diagonals of quadrilateral $ABCD$. (E. Bakaev)
An acute-angled non-isosceles triangle $ABC$ is drawn, a circumscribed circle and its center $O$ are drawn. The midpoint of side $AB$ is also marked. Using only a ruler (no divisions), construct the triangle's orthocenter by drawing no more than $6$ lines. (Yu. Blinkov)
Circle $\omega$ is tangent to the interior of the circle $\Omega$ at the point C. Chord $AB$ of circle $\Omega$ is tangent to $\omega$. Chords $CF$ and $BG$ of circle $\Omega$ intersect at point $E$ lying on $\omega$. Prove that the circumcircle of triangle $CGE$ is tangent to straight line $AF$. (I. Kukharchuk)
In a tetrahedron, segments connecting the midpoints of heights with the orthocenters of the faces to which these heights are drawn intersect at one point. Prove that in such a tetrahedron all faces are equal or there are perpendicular edges. (Yu. Blinkov)
