Let $ABC$ be a triangle where $AC\neq BC$. Let $P$ be the foot of the altitude taken from $C$ to $AB$; and let $V$ be the orthocentre, $O$ the circumcentre of $ABC$, and $D$ the point of intersection between the radius $OC$ and the side $AB$. The midpoint of $CD$ is $E$. a) Prove that the reflection $V'$ of $V$ in $AB$ is on the circumcircle of the triangle $ABC$. b) In what ratio does the segment $EP$ divide the segment $OV$?
