Observe: ![\[\angle CAB=\angle CBA=\angle EGA\]](http://latex.artofproblemsolving.com/8/0/4/804eea72b35117cbeb648bd29eb74cd965fc3103.png)
![\[\angle ECB=\angle CEG=\angle EAB= 90^\circ\]](http://latex.artofproblemsolving.com/7/2/2/722712b65d8613d3797ea63c4f56a91c07bc74bb.png)
Notice that ![\[\angle CBA = \angle FGA\]](http://latex.artofproblemsolving.com/d/2/a/d2a5044184909fe92d8505f40511b9321c91a798.png)
because 
.
Here F is the circumcentre of 
because 
lies on the Perpendicular bisector of AG
is the midpoint of 
is the perpendicular bisector of 
.
This gives ![\[\angle EFP =90^\circ\]](http://latex.artofproblemsolving.com/0/8/f/08ffa237cee2e795c91719df6617a5e70836a3a0.png)
And because ![\[\angle EFP+\angle ECP=180^\circ\]](http://latex.artofproblemsolving.com/7/9/e/79ec6002f0be9c7e10f9e7c7b5fc805c0bc90903.png)
Points E, F, P, C are concyclic.
Hence proven that the centre of the circumcircle of 
lies on the circumcircle of 
.
