Define:



Some Relations
Relation 1:
Relation 2:
Proof: This follows from the fact that

Relation 3:
Proof: Easy to get that,
And for,

Lemmas
Lemma 1: In
, if
are the Isogonal Conjugates WRT to
and if
,
, then 
Proof: WLOG, assume,
, then,

Lemma 2: Let
, such,
, Draw a parallel
through
to
and let
, then, 
Proof: From (Relation 3),

Lemma 3: Let
&
, then,
is the midpoint of 
Proof: From (Relation 2),

Consequence: From (Lemma 2), it is quite evident, that,
is 
Lemma 4:
is also the midpoint of
and 
Proof: Trivial and Quite evident from Consequence (Lemma3)
Lemma 5: Let
(parallel line)
, then,
is midpoint of 
Proof: This just follows as a consequence of (Lemma 2) and (Lemma 3)
Lemma 6: Let
,
and
, then, 
Proof: Apply Pascal's Theorem on
, we already have,
&
, Hence,

Lemma 7:
&
are Isogonal Lines WRT 
Proof: Direct Converse of (Lemma 1)
Lemma 8:
is a cyclic quadrilateral
Proof:
is cyclic
