Let $ABCD$ be a parallelogram that is not rhombus. We draw the symmetrical half-line of $(DC$ with respect to line $BD$. Similarly we draw the symmetrical half- line of $(AB$ with respect to $AC$. These half- lines intersect each other in $P$. If $\frac{AP}{DP}= q$ find the value of $\frac{AC}{BD}$ in function of $q$.

Let $A_1A_2...A_n$ ba a polygon. Prove that there is a convex polygon $B_1B_2...B_n$ such that $B_iB_{i + 1} = A_iA_{i + 1}$ for $i \in \{1, 2,...,n-1\}$ and $B_nB_1 = A_nA_1$ (some of the succecive vertices of the polygon $B_1B_2...B_n$ can be colinear).

In the $ABC$ triangle, the bisector of $A$ intersects the $[BC]$ at the point $A_ {1}$ , and the circle circumscribed to the triangle $ABC$ at the point $A_ {2}$. Similarly are defined $B_ {1}$ and $B_ {2}$ , as well as $C_ {1}$ and $C_ {2}$. Prove that

$$\frac {A_{1}A_{2}}{BA_{2} + A_{2}C} + \frac {B_{1}B_{2}}{CB_{2} + B_{2}A} + \frac {C_{1}C_{2}}{AC_{2} + C_{2}B} \geq \frac {3}{4}$$
