Problem Statement

Points E,FE, F are selected on sides AC,ABAC, AB respectively of triangle ABCABC with AC=ABAC=AB so that AE=BFAE = BF. Point DD is chosen so that D,AD, A are in the same halfplane with respect to line EFEF, and DFEABC\triangle DFE \sim \triangle ABC. Lines EF,BCEF, BC intersect at point KK. Prove that the line DKDK is tangent to the circumscribed circle of ABC\triangle ABC.
