Problem Statement

In acute triangle ABC\triangle ABC, MM is the midpoint of BCBC. Let \ell be the angle bisector of BAC\angle BAC. The tangent at CC to the circumcircle of ABC\triangle ABC meets \ell at DD. Point HH lies on \ell and satisfies ABH=90\angle ABH=90^{\circ}. The circumcircles of CDH\triangle CDH and ABC\triangle ABC intersect again at PP. Prove that CPM=ACB\angle CPM=\angle ACB.
