let ABC be a triangle such that AB<BC , AC not equal to BC and K be its circumcircle. The tangent line to K at the point A intersects the line BC in the point D. Let k be the circle tangent to K and to the segment AD and BD. We denote by M,N the points where k touches BD and AD respectively. Let J be the center of the exscribed circle which is tangent to the side AB. Prove that J,M,N are collinear.

Let ABC an acute triangle so that AB\not= AC and let H the orthocenter of ABC. Points D and E are in the sides AB,AC respectively so that D,H,E are collinear and AE=AD. Prove that if M is the midpoint of BC, then MH is perpendicular to the straight line that joins A with the second intersections (different of A) of the circumcircles of the triangles AED and ABC.
