Problem Statement

Let ABCABC be a triangle with ABACAB \neq AC and let MM be the middle of BCBC. The bisector of BAC\angle BAC intersects the line BCBC in QQ. Let HH be the foot of AA on BCBC. The perpendicular to AQAQ passing through AA intersects the line BCBC in SS. Show that MH×QS=AB×ACMH \times QS=AB \times AC.
