Let ABCD ABCD be a cyclic quadrilateral and let M M be the set of incenters and excenters of the triangles BCD BCD , CDA CDA , DAB DAB , ABC ABC (so 16 points in total). Prove that there exist two sets K \mathcal{K} and L \mathcal{L} of four parallel lines each, such that every line in K∪L \mathcal{K} \cup \mathcal{L} contains exactly four points of M M .
