To those looking for Bengali translations of problems: for goodness' sake please start practising maths in English if you are aiming for the IMO! You won't get questions in Bengali there!

I've replied to (hopefully) everyone who has sent me solutions. If you didn't get a reply, let me know asap.

I didn't get a reply from you. I however got two mails where you said you received my solutions.

My email ID is hsiam261@gmail.com.

I have sent you images. My handwriting isn't that good. So I apologize. Please zoom in to read.

$Solution$ $of$ $1$:
Join $C,D$.By Pythagorus's theorem,$CD=30,AC=34$.$\therefore$ By Power of point, $AE\times34=17\times16=272.\therefore AE=8.\therefore EC=26$.

$Solution$ $of$ $2$:
Draw a tangent at point $Q$.Suppose,it meets $AB$ at point $R$ and $CD$ at $S$.Line $RS$ is perpendicular to $AB$ and $CD$.Now,$AR=4$ and $RQ=2$.$\therefore AQ=2\sqrt{5}$.Suppose,the inscribed circle touches $AB$ at $F$.Then by $Power$ $of$ $point$,$AP \times 2\sqrt{5}=4$.$\therefore$ $AP=\frac{2} {\sqrt{5}}$.$\therefore PQ=\frac{8} {\sqrt{5}}$.

$\text{Another solution of problem 6}$:
Suppose,the line through $K$ parallel to $BC$ intersects $AB$ at $N$ and meets the circumcircle at $L$.Let $AP\cap BC=O$ and $CK\cap AB=D$.Now,in $\Delta DKN$ and $\Delta AOC,\angle OAC=\angle PAC=\angle PKC=\angle CKL=\angle DKN,\angle ACB=\angle ABC=\angle BNK= \angle DNK$.$\therefore$ $\angle KDN=\angle AOC=90^{\circ}$.$\therefore$ $AP\perp BC$.
