Problem
Let be quadrilateral inscribed in the circle . Simedian of the angle of the triangle intersects at point and simedian of the angle of the triangle intersects at point . Prove that if , then points , , lie on a line.


Solution
Let be images of points transformed by inversion respectively.
---
Then points are colinear and , . This implies from and fact that is simedian. Consequently , . Now it is sufficient to prove that points are cyclic. Furthermore
This completes the proof.
