Problem Statement

Acute scalene triangle ABCABC has GG as its centroid and OO as its circumcenter. Let Ha,Hb,HcH_a,\, H_b,\, H_c be the projections of A,B,CA,\, B,\, C on respective opposite sides and D,E,FD,\, E,\, F be the midpoints of BC,CA,ABBC,\, CA,\, AB in that order. GHa,GHb,GHc\overrightarrow{GH_a},\, \overrightarrow{GH_b},\, \overrightarrow{GH_c} intersect (O)(O) at X,Y,ZX,\,Y,\,Z respectively. a. Prove that the circle (XCE)(XCE) pass through the midpoint of BHaBH_a b. Let M,N,PM,\, N,\, P be the midpoints of AX,BY,CZAX,\, BY,\, CZ respectively. Prove that DM,EN,FP\overleftrightarrow{DM},\, \overleftrightarrow{EN},\,\overleftrightarrow{FP} are concurrent.
