Let $B$ and $C$ be fixed points, and let $A$ be a variable point such that $\angle BAC$ is fixed. The midpoints of $AB$ and $AC$ are $D$ and $E$ respectively, and $F,G$ are points such that $DF\perp AB$, $EG\perp AC$ and $BF$ and $CG$ are perpendicular to $BC$. Prove that $BF\cdot CG$ remains constant as $A$ varies.
