Problem Statement

In a triangle ABC\triangle ABC, DD and EE are respectively on ABAB and ACAC such that DEBCDE\parallel BC. PP is the intersection of BEBE and CDCD. MM is the second intersection of (APD)(APD) and (BCD)(BCD) , NN is the second intersection of (APE)(APE) and (BCE)(BCE). ww is the circle passing through MM and NN and tangent to BCBC. Prove that the lines tangent to ww at MM and NN intersect on APAP.
