Problem
Let be a circle and a point outside of it. and are the two tangent lines to this circle and point is chosen arbitrarily on the segment . The circumcircle of triangle intersects circle for the second time at . Let be the reflection of with respect to . Show that .

Solution
In this solution, all of the arcs considered are from circle .
Since quadrilateral is cyclic, . Therefore, On the other hand, So, , and the assertion is proved.
