Problem Statement

Let ABCDABCD be an isosceles trapezium inscribed in circle ω\omega, such that ABCDAB||CD. Let PP be a point on the circle ω\omega. Let H1H_1 and H2H_2 be the orthocenters of triangles PADPAD and PBCPBC respectively. Prove that the length of H1H2H_1H_2 remains constant, when PP varies on the circle.
