Let $ABC$ be a triangle with circumcircle $\Gamma$. Let $\omega_0$ be a circle tangent to chord $AB$ and arc $ACB$. For each $i = 1, 2$, let $\omega_i$ be a circle tangent to $AB$ at $T_i$ , to $\omega_0$ at $S_i$ , and to arc $ACB$. Suppose $\omega_1 \ne \omega_2$. Prove that there is a circle passing through $S_1, S_2, T_1$, and $T_2$, and tangent to $\Gamma$ if and only if $\angle ACB = 90^o$. .
