Let $M$ be the midpoint of the side $AC$ of a triangle $ABC$, and let $K$ be a point on the ray $BA$ beyond $A$. The line $KM$ intersects the side $BC$ at the point $L$. $P$is the point on the segment $BM$ such that $PM$ is the bisector of the angle $LPK$. The line $\ell$ passes through $A$ and is parallel to $BM$. Prove that the projection of the point $M$ onto the line $\ell$ belongs to the line $PK$.

i) $P$ is the circumcentre of triangle $ABC$.
ii) All the segments $PQ,QR$ and $RS$ are equal to the circumradius of triangle $ABC$.
iii) The oriented segment $PQ$ has the same direction as the oriented segment $AD$. Similarly, $QR$ has the same direction as $BE$, and $Rs$ has the same direction as $CF$.
Prove that $S$ is the incentre of triangle $ABC$.
