Problem Statement

Let DD be a point different from the vertices on the side BCBC of a triangle ABC.ABC. Let I,I1I, \: I_1 and I2I_2 be the incenters of the triangles ABC,ABDABC, \: ABD and ADC,ADC, respectively. Let EE be the second intersection point of the circumcircles of the triangles AI1IAI_1I and ADI2,ADI_2, and FF be the second intersection point of the circumcircles of the triangles AII2AII_2 and AI1D.AI_1D. Prove that if AI1=AI2,AI_1=AI_2, then EIFIEDFD=EI12FI12. \frac{EI}{FI} \cdot \frac{ED}{FD}=\frac{{EI_1}^2}{{FI_1}^2}.
