Problem Statement

Given a scalene triangle ABC ABC. Let A A', B B', C C' be the points where the internal bisectors of the angles CAB CAB, ABC ABC, BCA BCA meet the sides BC BC, CA CA, AB AB, respectively. Let the line BC BC meet the perpendicular bisector of AA AA' at A A''. Let the line CA CA meet the perpendicular bisector of BB BB' at B B'. Let the line AB AB meet the perpendicular bisector of CC CC' at C C''. Prove that A A'', B B'' and C C'' are collinear.
