Suppose that is a cyclic quadrilateral. Let E \equal{} AC\cap BD and F \equal{} AB\cap CD. Denote by and the orthocenters of triangles and , respectively. Prove that the points , , are collinear.Original formulation:Let be a triangle. A circle passing through and intersects the sides and again at and respectively. Prove that , and are concurrent, where and are the orthocentres of triangles and respectively.
