Problem Statement

Let be given a parallelogram ABCD ABCD and two points A1 A_1, C1 C_1 on its sides AB AB, BC BC, respectively. Lines AC1 AC_1 and CA1 CA_1 meet at P P. Assume that the circumcircles of triangles AA1P AA_1P and CC1P CC_1P intersect at the second point Q Q inside triangle ACD ACD. Prove that \angle PDA \equal{} \angle QBA.
