Determine all pairs (f,g)(f,g) of functions from the set of real numbers to itself that satisfy g(f(x+y))=f(x)+(2x+y)g(y)g(f(x+y)) = f(x) + (2x + y)g(y) for all real numbers xx and yy.

Let ABCDABCD be a convex quadrilateral whose sides ADAD and BCBC are not parallel. Suppose that the circles with diameters ABAB and CDCD meet at points EE and FF inside the quadrilateral. Let ωE\omega_E be the circle through the feet of the perpendiculars from EE to the lines AB,BCAB,BC and CDCD. Let ωF\omega_F be the circle through the feet of the perpendiculars from FF to the lines CD,DACD,DA and ABAB. Prove that the midpoint of the segment EFEF lies on the line through the two intersections of ωE\omega_E and ωF\omega_F.
