In triangle ABCABC the bisector of angle AA, the perpendicular to side ABAB from its midpoint, and the altitude from vertex BB, intersect in the same point. Prove that the bisector of angle AA, the perpendicular to side ACAC from its midpoint, and the altitude from vertex CC also intersect in the same point.

Rational triangles

Source: Tournament of towns, Junior A-Level paper, Fall 2004

Let us call a triangle rational if each of its angles is a rational number when measured in degrees. Let us call a point inside triangle rational if joining it to the three vertices of the triangle we get three rational triangles. Show that any acute rational triangle contains at least three distinct rational points.

Mutually inverse functions

Functions f and g are defined on the whole real line and are mutually inverse: g(f(x))=x, f(g(y))=y for all x, y. It is known that f can be written as a sum of periodic and linear functions: f(x)=kx+h(x) for some number k and a periodic function h(x). Show that g can also be written as a sum of periodic and linear functions. (A functions h(x) is called periodic if there exists a non-zero number d such that h(x+d)=h(x) for any x.)

Three circles pass through point X. Their intersection points (other than X) are denoted A, B, C. Let A' be the second point of intersection of line AX and the circle circumscribed around triangle BCX, and define similarly points B', C'. Prove that triangles ABC', AB'C, and A'BC are similar.
