Problem Statement

Let ABCDABCD be a parallelogram (non-rectangle) and Γ\Gamma is the circumcircle of ABD\triangle ABD. The points EE and FF are the intersections of the lines BCBC and DCDC with Γ\Gamma respectively. Define P=EDBAP=ED\cap BA, Q=FBDAQ=FB\cap DA and R=PQCAR=PQ\cap CA. Prove that PRRQ=(BCCD)2\frac{PR}{RQ}=(\frac{BC}{CD})^2
