Problem Statement

Let ABCABC be a triangle with BAC=60o\angle BAC = 60^o. Let EE be the point on the side BCBC , such that 2BAE=ACB2 \angle BAE = \angle ACB . Let DD be the second intersection of ABAB and the circumcircle of the triangle AECAEC and PP be the second intersection of CDCD and the circumcircle of the triangle DBEDBE. Calculate the angle BAP\angle BAP.
