Let $AA_1$ be the bisector of a triangle $ABC$. Points $D$ and $F$ are chosen on the line $BC$ such that $A_1$ is the midpoint of the segment $DF$. A line $l$, different from $BC$, passes through $A_1$ and intersects the lines $AB$ and $AC$ at points $B_1$ and $C_1$, respectively.
Find the locus of the points of intersection of the lines $B_1D$ and $C_1F$ for all possible positions of $l$.

Two circles $\Omega$ and $\Gamma$ are internally tangent at the point $B$. The chord $AC$ of $\Gamma$ is tangent to $\Omega$ at the point $L$, and the segments $AB$ and $BC$ intersect $\Omega$ at the points $M$ and $N$. Let $M_1$ and $N_1$ be the reflections of $M$ and $N$ about the line $BL$; and let $M_2$ and $N_2$ be the reflections of $M$ and $N$ about the line $AC$. The lines $M_1M_2$ and $N_1N_2$ intersect at the point $K$.
Prove that the lines $BK$ and $AC$ are perpendicular.

The internal bisectors of angles $\angle DAB$ and $\angle BCD$ of a quadrilateral $ABCD$ intersect at the point $X_1$, and the external bisectors of these angles intersect at the point $X_2$. The internal bisectors of angles $\angle ABC$ and $\angle CDA$ intersect at the point $Y_1$, and the external bisectors of these angles intersect at the point $Y_2$.
Prove that the angle between the lines $X_1X_2$ and $Y_1Y_2$ equals the angle between the diagonals $AC$ and $BD$.
