ELMO 2018 Problem 4

    Let ABCABC be a scalene triangle with orthocenter HH and circumcenter OO . Let PP be the midpoint of AH‾\overline{AH} and let TT be on line BCBC with ∠TAO=90∘\angle TAO=90^{\circ} . Let XX be the foot of the altitude from OO onto line PTPT . Prove that the midpoint of PX‾\overline{PX} lies on the nine-point circle* of △ABC\triangle ABC .

    *The nine-point circle of △ABC\triangle ABC is the unique circle passing through the following nine points: the midpoint of the sides, the feet of the altitudes, and the midpoints of AH‾\overline{AH} , BH‾\overline{BH} , and CH‾\overline{CH} .
