Problem Statement

Let ABCDABCD be a cyclic quadrilateral such that ABAB is a diameter of it's circumcircle. Suppose that ABAB and CDCD intersect at II, ADAD and BCBC at JJ, ACAC and BDBD at KK, and let NN be a point on ABAB. Show that IKIK is perpendicular to JNJN if and only if NN is the midpoint of ABAB.
