A trapezoid ABCDABCD (AB///CDAB ///CD) has the property that there are points PP and QQ on sides ADAD and BCBC respectively such that APB=CPD\angle APB = \angle CPD and AQB=CQD\angle AQB = \angle CQD. Show that the points PP and QQ are equidistant from the intersection point of the diagonals of the trapezoid.

Let Γ1,Γ2 \Gamma_1,\Gamma_2 and Γ3 \Gamma_3 be three non-intersecting circles,which are tangent to the circle Γ \Gamma at points A1,B1,C1 A_1,B_1,C_1,respectively.Suppose that common tangent lines to (Γ2,Γ3) (\Gamma_2,\Gamma_3),(Γ1,Γ3) (\Gamma_1,\Gamma_3),(Γ2,Γ1) (\Gamma_2,\Gamma_1) intersect in points A,B,C A,B,C. Prove that lines AA1,BB1,CC1 AA_1,BB_1,CC_1 are concurrent.
