In the exterior of the acute-angles triangle $ABC$ we construct the isosceles triangles $DAB$ and $EAC$ with bases $AB{}$ and $AC{}$ respectively such that $\angle DBC=\angle ECB=90^\circ.$ Let $M$ and $N$ be the reflections of $A$ with respect to $D$ and $E$ respectively. Prove that the line $MN$ passes through the orthocentre of the triangle $ABC.$ Florin Bojor
