Problem
As shown below, let be a cyclic quadrilateral such that the diagonals and are perpendicular with intersection point . Point is on the side , the ray meets the circumscribed circle of at point . Point is on the segment such that . The line through perpendicular to meets at . Show that .

Solution
Proof: Let , intersecting at , and at . Extend and to intersect at and , respectively. From , we get , similarly . Since , we have are concyclic. From , we find are concyclic, hence are concyclic. Similarly, are concyclic. Since , we have are concyclic. Given , and , we get . Since , it is known that is the center of circle , thus .
