Problem Statement

Let ABCABC a triangle with circumcircle Γ\Gamma and circumcenter OO. A point XX, different from AA, BB, CC, or their diametrically opposite points, on Γ\Gamma, is chosen. Let ω\omega the circumcircle of COXCOX. Let EE the second intersection of XAXA with ω\omega, FF the second intersection of XBXB with ω\omega and DD a point on line ABAB such that CDEFCD \perp EF. Prove that EE is the circumcenter of ADCADC and FF is the circumcenter of BDCBDC.
