IMO Marathon
Problem $\boxed {23}$:
Let $a,b,c$ be positive real numbers such that $a+b+c=1$. Prove that
$\displaystyle\frac{ab}{\sqrt {ab+bc}}+\displaystyle\frac{bc}{\sqrt {bc+ca}}+\displaystyle\frac{ca}{\sqrt {ca+ab}} \leq \displaystyle\frac{1}{\sqrt {2}}$

Re: IMO Marathon
Another proof for $\boxed {22}$
Edit [ solution removed due to some bug . ( I dunno why i did consider CL ,CK as bisector ) ]
I'll fix it ,when my laptop be fixed

Re: IMO Marathon
I'm a little confused.Nadim Ul Abrar wrote: Now $\displaystyle \angle DCL=180-(\frac{\angle D}{2}+\angle CLD)=180-(90-\angle ALD)=90+\angle ALD$
Here you concluded $\frac{\angle D}{2}+\angle CLD=90^{\circ}-\angle ALD$.
But according to my figure $90^{\circ}-\angle ALD=\angle CYL,\frac{\angle D}{2}+\angle CLD=\angle YCL$.
So for your arguement to be true $CL$ must be equal to $LY$ which isn't true according to my figure and neither can I find any reasoning behind that.
Please clarify and provide a decent figure.

Re: IMO Marathon
Reviving the marathon...
Problem $24$: Circles $W_1,W_2$ intersect at $P,K$. $XY$ is common tangent of two circles which is nearer to $P$ and $X$ is on $W_1$ and $Y$ is on $W_2$. $XP$ intersects $W_2$ for the second time in $C$ and $YP$ intersects $W_1$ in $B$. Let $A$ be intersection point of $BX$ and $CY$. Prove that if $Q$ is the second intersection point of circumcircles of $ABC$ and $AXY$,$\angle QXA=\angle QKP$.

Re: IMO Marathon
Let $(ABC)\cap W_1=D, DC \cap W_1=E$
Observe some facts (Can be proved easily )
1.$XY||BE$
2.$XE||AC$
$\angle KEX=\angle KPC=\angle KYC$ imply $Y,K,E$ are colinear .
Let $QY \cap BE =G$ . Now $\angle QGB =\angle QYX=180- \angle QAB$ imply $G$ lie on $(ABC)$ .
So $\angle GQD=\angle YQD=\angle GBD=\angle DKE$ imply $D,K,Y,Q$ cyclic .
Note that $AX=AY$ .
Now $\angle AYX=\angle AXY=\angle XBE =\angle XDE=\angle XDC$ imply $X,Y,C,D$ cyclic .(1)
So Due to some radical center stuff $DX,CY,KP$ concur at some point $F$
Now $\angle CYK=\angle CPK=\angle KDX $ imply $D,K,Y,F$ cyclic .(2)
(1),(2) imply ,$F,Q,Y,K$ cyclic .
So $\angle QXA=\angle QYA=\angle QYF=\angle QKF=\angle QKP$

Re: IMO Marathon
Nice Solution, Nadim vai , I would like to post mine as well.
Since there are two major spiral similarities in the figure, I tried to exploit them as much as possible.
From alternate segment theorem, $\angle YXK=\angle XBK,\angle XYK=\angle YCK$.
Since a spiral similarity centered at $K$ sends $BX$ to $YC$, we get $\triangle KBX \sim \triangle KXY \sim \triangle KYC$.
Let $M,Z,N$ be the midpoints of $BX,XY,YC$ respectively. From radical axis theorem we get $K,P,Z$ are collinear.
So $\triangle KBM \sim \triangle KXZ \sim \triangle KYN$ and $\triangle KMX \sim KZY \sim KNC$.
Again a spiral similarity centered at $Q$ sends $XY$ to $BC$. So $\triangle QXY \sim \triangle QBC$.
Since $M,N$ are corresponding points, we conclude $\triangle QXY \sim \triangle QMN \sim \triangle QBC$.
$\triangle KBM \sim \triangle KYN \Rightarrow \angle KMB=\angle KNY \Rightarrow AMKN$ is cyclic.
$\triangle QXY \sim \triangle QMN \Rightarrow \angle QMN=\angle QXY=180^{\circ}-\angle QAZ \Rightarrow AQMN$ is cyclic.
So $A,Q,M,K,N$ are concyclic. Now $\angle QXA=\angle QXY-\angle AXY=\angle QMN-\angle BKX=\angle QKN-\angle ZKN=\angle QKP$.
Done! Awesome use of spiral similarity, quite as awesome as IMO-2006-G9.
