Problem Statement

The circle with the center of O O touches the sides of the angle A A at the points of K K and M M . The tangent to the circle intersects the segments AK AK and AM AM at points B B and C C respectively, and the line KM KM intersects the segments OB OB and OC OC at the points D D and E E . Prove that the area of the triangle ODE ODE is equal to a quarter of the area of a triangle BOC BOC if and only if the angle A A is 60∘ 60^\circ .
