Given $\triangle ABC$ with circumcircle $\Gamma$ and circumcentre $O$, let $X$ be a point on $\Gamma$. Let $XC_1$, $XB_1$ to be feet of perpendiculars from $X$ to lines $AB$ and $AC$. Define $\omega_C$ as the circle with centre the midpoint of $AB$ and passing through $C_1$ . Define $\omega_B$ similarly. Prove that $\omega_B$ and $\omega_C$ has a common point on $XO$.
