Let AA be a point outside the circle ω\omega. Two points B,CB, C lie on ω\omega such that AB,ACAB, AC are tangent to ω\omega. Let DD be any point on ω\omega (DD is neither BB nor CC) and MM the foot of perpendicular from BB to CDCD. The line through DD and the midpoint of BMBM meets ω\omega again at PP. Prove that APCPAP \perp CP
