Problem Statement

Let ΔABC\Delta ABC be a scalene triangle. Points D,ED,E lie on side AC\overline{AC} in the order, A,E,D,CA,E,D,C. Let the parallel through EE to BCBC intersect (ABD)\odot (ABD) at FF, such that, EE and FF lie on the same side of ABAB. Let the parallel through EE to ABAB intersect (BDC)\odot (BDC) at GG, such that, EE and GG lie on the same side of BCBC. Prove, Points D,F,E,GD,F,E,G are concyclic
