Problem Statement

Let ABCABC be an acute scalene triangle. Incircle of ABCABC touches BC,CA,ABBC,CA,AB at D,E,FD,E,F respectively. Let X,Y,ZX,Y,Z be feet the altitudes of from A,B,CA,B,C to the sides BC,CA,ABBC,CA,AB respectively. Let A,B,CA',B',C' be the reflections of X,Y,ZX,Y,Z in EF,FD,DEEF,FD,DE respectively. Prove that triangles ABCABC and ABCA'B'C' are similar.
