Problem Statement

Consider the acute-angled triangle ABCABC. Let XX be a point on the side BCBC, and YY be a point on the side CACA. The circle k1k_1 with diameter AXAX cuts ACAC again at EE' .The circle k2k_2 with diameter BYBY cuts BCBC again at BB'. (i) Let MM be the midpoint of XYXY . Prove that AM=BMA'M = B'M. (ii) Suppose that k1k_1 and k2k_2 meet at PP and QQ. Prove that the orthocentre of ABCABC lies on the line PQPQ.
