Problem Statement

The incircle of triangle ABCABC touches BCBC at DD and ACAC at EE. Let KK be the point on CBCB with CK=BDCK=BD, and LL be the point on CACA with AE=CLAE=CL. Lines AKAK and BLBL meet at PP. If QQ is the midpoint of BCBC, II the incenter, and GG the centroid of ABC\triangle ABC, show that:
(a)(a) IQIQ and AKAK are parallel,
(b)(b) the triangles AIGAIG and QPGQPG have equal area.
