Problem Statement
Let be a triangle, and and the midpoints of its sides and . Consider two lines and which both pass through the vertex and are symmetric to each other with respect to the angle bisector of the angle . Further, let and be the orthogonal projections of the point on these lines and .
Show that the points and are symmetric to each other with respect to the line .
