Problem Statement

Let ABC\triangle ABC be a triangle with A\angle A-acute. Let PP be a point inside ABC\triangle ABC such that BAP=ACP\angle BAP = \angle ACP and CAP=ABP\angle CAP =\angle ABP. Let M,NM, N be the centers of the incircle of ABP\triangle ABP and ACP\triangle ACP, and RR the radius of the circumscribed circle of AMN\triangle AMN. Prove that 1R=1AB+1AC+1AP.\displaystyle \frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{AB}+\frac{1}{AC}+\frac{1}{AP}.
