Points AA, V1V_1, V2V_2, BB, U2U_2, U1U_1 lie fixed on a circle Γ\Gamma, in that order, and such that BU2>AU1>BV2>AV1BU_2 > AU_1 > BV_2 > AV_1. Let XX be a variable point on the arc V1V2V_1 V_2 of Γ\Gamma not containing AA or BB. Line XAXA meets line U1V1U_1 V_1 at CC, while line XBXB meets line U2V2U_2 V_2 at DD. Let OO and ρ\rho denote the circumcenter and circumradius of XCD\triangle XCD, respectively. Prove there exists a fixed point KK and a real number cc, independent of XX, for which OK2ρ2=cOK^2 - \rho^2 = c always holds regardless of the choice of XX.
Plain-text mathematical notation (without MathML)
Points A, V₁, V₂, B, U₂, U₁ lie fixed on a circle Γ, in that order, and such that BU₂>AU₁>BV₂>AV₁.

Let X be a variable point on the arc V₁V₂ of Γ not containing A or B.  Line XA meets line U₁V₁ at C, while line XB meets line U₂V₂ at D.  Let O and ρ denote the circumcenter and circumradius of △XCD, respectively.

Prove there exists a fixed point K and a real number c, independent of X, for which OK²−ρ²=c always holds regardless of the choice of X.
Original LaTeX notation
Points $A$, $V_1$, $V_2$, $B$, $U_2$, $U_1$ lie fixed on a circle $\Gamma$, in that order, and such that $BU_2 > AU_1 > BV_2 > AV_1$.

Let $X$ be a variable point on the arc $V_1 V_2$ of $\Gamma$ not containing $A$ or $B$.  Line $XA$ meets line $U_1 V_1$ at $C$, while line $XB$ meets line $U_2 V_2$ at $D$.  Let $O$ and $\rho$ denote the circumcenter and circumradius of $\triangle XCD$, respectively.

Prove there exists a fixed point $K$ and a real number $c$, independent of $X$, for which $OK^2 - \rho^2 = c$ always holds regardless of the choice of $X$.
