Let FF and GG be the midpoints of sides ABAB and ACAC, respectively. XX is the point of intersection of lines DFDF and EGEG. Let O1O_1 and O2O_2 be the circumcenters of triangles EFXEFX and DGXDGX, respectively. Finally, MM is the midpoint of line segment O1O2O_1O_2. Prove that points XX, HH and MM are collinear.
