Problem Statement

Points AA, BB and CC lie on one side of the angle with the vertex at point OO, and points AA', BB' and CC' lie on the other. It is known thatB B is the midpoint of the segment ACAC, BB' is the midpoint of the segment ACA'C', and lines AAAA', BBBB' and CCCC' are parallel (fig.). Prove that the centers of the circles circumscribed around the triangles OACOAC, OACOA'C and OBBOBB' lie on the same straight line. https://cdn.artofproblemsolving.com/attachments/d/6/92831077781bc45f25e9f71077034f84753a59.png
