Problem Statement

In the cyclic quadrilateral ABCDABCD with AB=ADAB = AD, points MM and NN lie on the sides CDCD and BCBC respectively so that MN=BN+DMMN = BN + DM. Lines AMAM and ANAN meet the circumcircle of ABCDABCD again at points PP and QQ respectively. Prove that the orthocenter of the triangle APQAPQ lies on the segment MNMN.
