Challenging Geometric Inequality: Prove $\leq R^{3}$

Unread post by ishfaqhaque » Wed Jan 05, 2011 7:49 pm

Let $ABC $ be an acute triangle with $\omega,S,$ and $R $ being its incircle, circumcircle, and circumradius, respectively. Circle $\omega_{A}$ is tangent internally to $S$ at $A$ and tangent externally to $\omega$. Circle $S_{A} $is tangent internally to $ S$ at $A$ and tangent internally to $\omega$. Let $P_{A}$ and $Q_{A} $denote the centers of $\omega_{A} $ and $S_{A}$, respectively. Define points $P_{B}, Q_{B}, P_{C}, Q_{C} $ analogously. Prove that
$8P_{A}Q_{A}\cdot P_{B}Q_{B}\cdot P_{C}Q_{C}\leq R^{3}\;$ :mrgreen:

Reason: remember space does not work inside latex. Read the latex guide.

whoa...man...this is not a very good problem to post here. (However, it can be a open challenge for Zubaer, Dhononjoy, Urmi, and some other guys...) :D

BTW you have defied a rule of the forum. You're not using a good topic. :)

Yup...this is ridiculous. In our time, we did not get problems from the seniors (even after begging). Now people don't even try these problems...huh...

Oh...Tanvir vi, and Nayel vi used to give us a few problems.
