Problem 4

Let ABCABC be an acute triangle with AB>BCAB>BC and AC>BCAC>BC. Let O,HO,H be its circumcenter and orthocenter. The circumcircle of AHCAHC meets line ABAB again at MM, and the circumcircle of AHBAHB meets line ACAC again at NN. Prove that the circumcenter of triangle MNHMNH lies on line OHOH.

Detailed analysis

Let M′M^\prime be the second intersection of CHCH with the circumcircle of ABCABC, and N′N^\prime the second intersection of BHBH with that circle. Cyclic angles show quadrilaterals HBM′MHBM^\prime M and HCN′NHCN^\prime N are rhombi.
