Problem Statement

Let ABCABC be an acute triangle with BAC>BCA\angle BAC>\angle BCA, and let DD be a point on side ACAC such that AB=BD|AB|=|BD|. Furthermore, let FF be a point on the circumcircle of triangle ABCABC such that line FDFD is perpendicular to side BCBC and points F,BF,B lie on different sides of line ACAC. Prove that line FBFB is perpendicular to side ACAC .
