On the sides BCBC and ACAC of the isosceles triangle ABCABC (AB=BCAB = BC), points EE and DD are marked, respectively, so that DEABDE \parallel AB. On the extendsion of side CBCB beyond the point BB, point KK was arbitrarily marked. Let PP be the intersection point of the lines ABAB and KDKD. Let QQ be the intersection point of the lines AKAK and DEDE. Prove that CACA is the bisector of angle PCQ\angle PCQ.
