Problem Statement

Let ABCABC be a triangle, and MM the midpoint of the side BCBC. Let EE and FF be points on the sides ACAC and ABAB, respectively, so that ME=MFME=MF. Let DD be the second intersection of the circumcircle of MEFMEF and the side BCBC. Consider the lines D\ell_D, E\ell_E and F\ell_F through D,ED, E and FF, respectively, such that DBC\ell_D \perp BC, EAC\ell_E \perp AC and FAB\ell_F \perp AB. Show that D,E\ell_D, \ell_E and F\ell_F are concurrent.
