Problem Statement

Let ABCDABCD be a cyclic quadrilateral with BAD<ADC\angle BAD < \angle ADC. Let MM be the midpoint of the arc CDCD not containing AA. Suppose there is a point PP inside ABCDABCD such that ADB=CPD\angle ADB = \angle CPD and ADP=PCB\angle ADP = \angle PCB.
Prove that lines AD,PMAD, PM, and BCBC are concurrent.
