Let be the longest side of the triangle . Let and denote the points on the side , such that and . Denote the midpoints of the segments and by and . The incircle of the triangle touches the sides and at and . Prove that the points and are concyclic.
Solution
Let be the incentre of the triangle .

Triangle AMC is isosceles with the apex at A, so the line AP is the altitude to the base and at the same time the bisector of the angle . It follows that lies on . Similarly, lies on the line . This implies that and , so the points and lie on the circle with diameter . Since and are the points where the incircle touches the sides of the triangle, we have , and and therefore lie on the circle with diameter . We have shown that the points , , and are concyclic.
