Problem Statement

Let BB and CC be arbitrary points on sides APAP and PDPD respectively of an acute triangle APDAPD. The diagonals of the quadrilateral ABCDABCD meet at QQ, and H1,H2H_1,H_2 are the orthocenters of triangles APDAPD and BPCBPC, respectively. Prove that if the line H1H2H_1H_2 passes through the intersection point X (XQ)X \ (X \neq Q) of the circumcircles of triangles ABQABQ and CDQCDQ, then it also passes through the intersection point Y (YQ)Y \ (Y \neq Q) of the circumcircles of triangles BCQBCQ and ADQ.ADQ.
