  1. Partial solution:
    Let B0, C0 and A0 are the projection of T over AC, AB and BC
    Since A0B0C0 is the Simpson line of point T so A0, B0 and C0 are collinear
    We have TB2/TB0=TA2/TA0=TC2/TC0= 2 so A2, B2 and C2 are collinear

  2. This problem is the same as problem number 6 of International Mathematic Olympiad 2011
