Two circles $K_1$ and $K_2$ of different radii intersect at two points $A$ and $B$, let $C$ and $D$ be two points on $K_1$ and $K_2$, respectively, such that $A$ is the midpoint of the segment $CD$. The extension of $DB$ meets $K_1$ at another point $E$, the extension of $CB$ meets $K_2$ at another point $F$. Let $l_1$ and $l_2$ be the perpendicular bisectors of $CD$ and $EF$, respectively. i) Show that $l_1$ and $l_2$ have a unique common point (denoted by $P$). ii) Prove that the lengths of $CA$, $AP$ and $PE$ are the side lengths of a right triangle.
