  1. Since D is on circumcicle of ABC => GHN is Simson line from D
    So G,H,N are collinear
    Since D is on circumcicle of AEF => GHM is Simson line from D
    So G,H,M are collinear => G,H,M,N are collinear

  2. < DCH = < DAG = < GHD and since DHMC is con cyclic G,H,N are collinear

    Further < GDM = < ADF and because GDME and ADFE are cyclic < ADG = < FDM and so < AHG = < MHF so G,H, M are collinear

    Hence G,H, N, M are collinear

  3. Sumith,
    There's seems to be a typo in your proof. Should it not be < DCB (not DCH) = < DAG = < GHD? As also D,H,N,C are concyclic not DHMC? Correct me if I'm wrong.
    By the way, I need your assistance in planning a trip to Sri Lanka coming summer in April/May 2016. Would you be kind enough to send me a message at: ajitathle@gmail.com?
