Problem Statement

Let ABCDABCD be a convex quadrilateral with B=D=90\angle B = \angle D = 90^{\circ}. Let EE be the point of intersection of BCBC with ADAD and let MM be the midpoint of AEAE. On the extension of CDCD, beyond the point DD, we pick a point ZZ such that MZ=AE2MZ = \frac{AE}{2}. Let UU and VV be the projections of AA and EE respectively on BZBZ. The circumcircle of the triangle DUVDUV meets again AEAE at the point LL. If II is the point of intersection of BZBZ with AEAE, prove that the lines BLBL and CICI intersect on the line AZAZ.
