The incircle of the triangle ABCABC, with the center II , touches the sides AB,ACAB, AC and BCBC in the points K,LK, L and MM respectively. Points PP and QQ are taken on the sides ACAC and BCBC respectively, such that AP=CL|AP| = |CL| and BQ=CM|BQ| = |CM|. Prove that the difference of areas of the figures APIQBAPIQB and CPIQCPIQ is equal to the area of the quadrangle CLIMCLIM
