Problem Statement

The point MM is the center of a regular pentagon ABCDEABCDE. The point PP is an inner point of the line segment [DM][DM]. The circumscribed circle of triangle ABP\vartriangle ABP intersects the side [AE][AE] at point QQ (different from AA). The perpendicular from PP on CDCD intersects the side [AE][AE] at point SS. Prove that PSPS is the bisector of APQ\angle APQ.
