LetABCbe an acute triangle,Tthe midpoint of arcBCof the circle
circumscribingABC. LetGandKbe the projections ofAandT re-
spectively onBC, letHandLbe the projections ofBandConAT,
and letEbe the midpoint ofAB. Prove that


(a) KH//AC,GL//BT,GH//T C, andLK//AB.

(b)G,H,KandLare concyclic.

(c) The center of the circle throughG,H, andK lies on the Euler
circle (nine-point circle) of triangleABC.
