Let $ABC$ be an acute triangle with $AB>AC$. Let $\Gamma$ be its circumcircle, $H$ its orthocenter, and $F$ the foot of the altitude from $A$. Let $M$ be the midpoint of $BC$. Let $Q$ be the point on $\Gamma$ such that $\angle HKQ=90^\circ$. Assume that the points $A$, $B$, $C$, $K$, and $Q$ are all different, and lie on $\Gamma$ in this order.

Prove that the circumcircles of triangles $KQH$ and $FKM$ are tangent to each other.

The Actual Problem

Let $ABC$ be an acute triangle with $AB > AC$. Let $Γ$ (Error compiling LaTeX. Unknown error_msg) be its circumcircle, $H$ its orthocenter, and $F$ the foot of the altitude from $A$. Let $M$ be the midpoint of $BC$. Let $Q$ be the point on $Γ$ (Error compiling LaTeX. Unknown error_msg) such that $\angle HQA = 90◦$ and let $K$ be the point on $Γ$ (Error compiling LaTeX. Unknown error_msg) such that $\angle HKQ = 90◦$ . Assume that the points $A$, $B$, $C$, $K$ and $Q$ are all different and lie on $Γ$ (Error compiling LaTeX. Unknown error_msg) in this order. Prove that the circumcircles of triangles $KQH$ and $FKM$ are tangent to each other.
