Problem Statement

Let A1A_1, B1B_1 be two points on the base ABAB of an isosceles triangle ABCABC, with C>60\angle C>60^{\circ}, such that A1CB1=ABC\angle A_1CB_1=\angle ABC. A circle externally tangent to the circumcircle of A1B1C\triangle A_1B_1C is tangent to the rays CACA and CBCB at points A2A_2 and B2B_2, respectively. Prove that A2B2=2ABA_2B_2=2AB.
