Problem Statement

Triangle ABCABC circumscribed (O)(O) has AA-excircle (J)(J) that touches AB, BC, ACAB,\ BC,\ AC at F, D, EF,\ D,\ E, resp.
a. LL is the midpoint of BCBC. Circle with diameter LJLJ cuts DE, DFDE,\ DF at K, HK,\ H. Prove that (BDK), (CDH)(BDK),\ (CDH) has an intersecting point on (J)(J). b. Let EFBC={G}EF\cap BC =\{G\} and GJGJ cuts AB, ACAB,\ AC at M, NM,\ N, resp. PJBP\in JB and QJCQ\in JC such that PAB=QAC=90.\angle PAB=\angle QAC=90{}^\circ . PMQN={T}PM\cap QN=\{T\} and SS is the midpoint of the larger BCBC-arc of (O)(O). (I)(I) is the incircle of ABCABC. Prove that SIAT(O)SI\cap AT\in (O).
