Let ABC be a triangle and let , , and be points on BC, CA, and AB, respectively. Suppose that the circumcircles of , , and (the Miquel circles) intersect the circumcircle of ABC at points , , and , respectively, where , , and . Let , , and be symmetric to , , and with respect to the midpoints of BC, CA, and AB, respectively. Then and are similar.
