Problem Statement

Triangle ABCABC with incircle (I)(I) touches the sides AB,BC,ACAB, BC, AC at F,D,EF, D, E, res. Ib,IcI_b, I_c are BB- and CC- excenters of ABCABC. P,QP, Q are midpoints of IbE,IcFI_bE, I_cF. (PAC)AB={A,R}(PAC)\cap AB=\{ A, R\}, (QAB)AC={A,S}(QAB)\cap AC=\{ A,S\}. a. Prove that PR,QS,AIPR, QS, AI are concurrent. b. DE,DFDE, DF cut IbIcI_bI_c at K,JK, J, res. EJFK={M}EJ\cap FK=\{ M\}. PE,QFPE, QF cut (PAC),(QAB)(PAC), (QAB) at X,YX, Y res. Prove that BY,CX,AMBY, CX, AM are concurrent.
