Problem Statement

Let M M be a point in triangle ABC ABC such that \angle AMC\equal{}90^{\circ}, \angle AMB\equal{}150^{\circ}, \angle BMC\equal{}120^{\circ}. The centers of circumcircles of triangles AMC,AMB,BMC AMC,AMB,BMC are P,Q,R P,Q,R, respectively. Prove that the area of PQR \triangle PQR is greater than the area of ABC \triangle ABC.
