Let P P be a point in triangle ABC ABC, and define α,β,γ \alpha,\beta,\gamma as follows: \alpha\equal{}\angle BPC\minus{}\angle BAC,   \beta\equal{}\angle CPA\minus{}\angle \angle CBA,   \gamma\equal{}\angle APB\minus{}\angle ACB. Prove that PA\dfrac{\sin \angle BAC}{\sin \alpha}\equal{}PB\dfrac{\sin \angle CBA}{\sin \beta}\equal{}PC\dfrac{\sin \angle ACB}{\sin \gamma}.

Given triangle ABC ABC and its circumcircle Γ \Gamma, let M M and N N be the midpoints of arcs BC BC (that does not contain A A) and CA CA (that does not contain B B), repsectively. Let X X be a variable point on arc AB AB that does not contain C C. Let O1 O_1 and O2 O_2 be the incenter of triangle XAC XAC and XBC XBC, respectively. Let the circumcircle of triangle XO1O2 XO_1O_2 meets Γ \Gamma at Q Q. (a) Prove that QNO1 QNO_1 and QMO2 QMO_2 are similar. (b) Find the locus of Q Q as X X varies.
