Solution
Denote , , . From well known property we have: . In another way: here If we observe that , so by easy calculation we get following:
(here because of is circumcenter of ) By similar way, we can get and
From (1), (2) and (3) we getting that
Then by Menelaus' theorem the lines passing same point.
