Problem Statement

Let ABCDABCD be a quadrilateral inscribed in a unit circle with center OO. Suppose that AOB=COD=135\angle AOB = \angle COD = 135^\circ, BC=1BC=1. Let BB^\prime and CC^\prime be the reflections of AA across BOBO and COCO respectively. Let H1H_1 and H2H_2 be the orthocenters of ABCAB^\prime C^\prime and BCDBCD, respectively. If MM is the midpoint of OH1OH_1, and OO^\prime is the reflection of OO about the midpoint of MH2MH_2, compute OOOO^\prime.
