Sauda,c~oes,

Oi Sergio,

i) IME 1986/1987 (9a questao)
Sejam duas retas ortogonais r e r' nao coplanares.
Considere sobre r dois pontos fixos A e B
e sobre r' dois pontos variaveis M e M', tais que
a projecao de M' sobre o plano que contem o
triangulo MAB eh o ortocentro H deste triangulo.
Determine o lugar geometrico dos centros das esferas
circunscritas ao tetraedro ABMM'.

A solução que segue eu não entendi. Precisaria de algumas
aulas de geometria espacial e bons desenhos para entendê-la.
Espero que lhe seja útil.

It is easy if we know some properties of the orthocentric tetrahedrons.
If V is the common point of r' with the plane passing through r and
orthogonal to r', the condition means that the tetrahedron is
orthocentric with orthocenter the orthocenter H of ABV.
As the centroid G of the tetrahedron moves on a line parallel to r',
the center of the circumsphere, which is the reflection of H in G,
will move too on a line parallel to r'.
