    Given trapezoid ABCDA B C D with parallel sides ABA B and CDC D, assume that there exist points EE on line BCB C outside segment BCB C, and FF inside segment ADA D, such that ∠DAE=∠CBF\angle D A E=\angle C B F. Denote by II the point of intersection of CDC D and EFE F, and by JJ the point of intersection of ABA B and EFE F. Let KK be the midpoint of segment EFE F; assume it does not lie on line ABA B. Prove that II belongs to the circumcircle of ABKA B K if and only if KK belongs to the circumcircle of CDJC D J.
