The triangle $ABC$ is $| BC | = a$ and $| AC | = b$. On the ray starting from vertex $C$ and passing the midpoint of side $AB$ , choose any point $D$ other than vertex $C$. Let $K$ and $L$ be the projections of $D$ on the lines $AC$ and $BC$, respectively, $K$ and $L$. Find the ratio $| DK | : | DL |$.
