Given a triangle $ABC$ and points $P$ and $Q$. It is known that the triangles formed by the projections $P$ and $Q$ on the sides of $ABC$ are similar (vertices lying on the same sides of the original triangle correspond to each other). Prove that line $PQ$ passes through the center of the circumscribed circle of triangle $ABC$. (A. Zaslavsky)
