Problem Statement

Let GG be the centroid of a right-angled triangle ABCABC with BCA=90\angle BCA = 90^\circ. Let PP be the point on ray AGAG such that CPA=CAB\angle CPA = \angle CAB, and let QQ be the point on ray BGBG such that CQB=ABC\angle CQB = \angle ABC. Prove that the circumcircles of triangles AQGAQG and BPGBPG meet at a point on side ABAB.
