Problem Statement

Let ABCABC be a fixed acute-angled triangle. Consider some points EE and FF lying on the sides ACAC and ABAB, respectively, and let MM be the midpoint of EFEF . Let the perpendicular bisector of EFEF intersect the line BCBC at KK, and let the perpendicular bisector of MKMK intersect the lines ACAC and ABAB at SS and TT , respectively. We call the pair (E,F)(E, F ) <spanclass=latexitalic>interesting</span><span class='latex-italic'>interesting</span>, if the quadrilateral KSATKSAT is cyclic. Suppose that the pairs (E1,F1)(E_1 , F_1 ) and (E2,F2)(E_2 , F_2 ) are interesting. Prove that E1E2AB=F1F2AC\displaystyle\frac{E_1 E_2}{AB}=\frac{F_1 F_2}{AC} Proposed by Ali Zamani, Iran
