Given acute triangle ABCABC with circumcenter OO and the center of nine-point circle NN. Point N1N_1 are given such that NAB=N1AC\angle NAB = \angle N_1AC and NBC=N1BA\angle NBC = \angle N_1BA. Perpendicular bisector of segment OAOA intersects the line BCBC at A1A_1. Analogously define B1B_1 and C1C_1. Show that all three points A1,B1,C1A_1,B_1,C_1 are collinear at a line that is perpendicular to ON1ON_1.

Let ABCDABCD be a convex quadrilateral with ABAB is not parallel to CDCD. Circle ω1\omega_1 with center O1O_1 passes through AA and BB, and touches segment CDCD at PP. Circle ω2\omega_2 with center O2O_2 passes through CC and DD, and touches segment ABAB at QQ. Let EE and FF be the intersection of circles ω1\omega_1 and ω2\omega_2. Prove that EFEF bisects segment PQPQ if and only if BCBC is parallel to ADAD.

In a party, each person knew exactly 22 22 other persons. For each two persons X X and Y Y, if X X and Y Y knew each other, there is no other person who knew both of them, and if X X and Y Y did not know each other, there are exactly 6 6 persons who knew both of them. Assume that X X knew Y Y iff Y Y knew X X. How many people did attend the party? Yudi Satria, Jakarta
