Given triangle ABCABC. A circle Γ\Gamma is tangent to the circumcircle of triangle ABCABC at AA and tangent to BCBC at DD. Let EE be the intersection of circle Γ\Gamma and ACAC. Prove that R2=OE2+CD2(1BC2AB2+AC2)R^2=OE^2+CD^2\left(1- \frac{BC^2}{AB^2+AC^2}\right) where OO is the center of the circumcircle of triangle ABCABC, with radius RR.

Suppose L1L_1 is a circle with center OO, and L2L_2 is a circle with center OO'. The circles intersect at A A and B B such that OAO=90o\angle OAO' = 90^o. Suppose that point XX lies on the circumcircle of triangle OABOAB, but lies inside L2L_2. Let the extension of OXOX intersect L1L_1 at YY and ZZ. Let the extension of OXO'X intersect L2L_2 at WW and VV . Prove that XWZ\vartriangle XWZ is congruent with XYV\vartriangle XYV.
