    Let S is the midpoint of AB
    Connect BF, AI, SO and SQ
    Triangle ACI congruent to FCB ( case SAS)
    ACI is the rotational image of FCB around C so AI= FB and AI ⊥FB
    S, O and Q are the midpoints of AB, AF and BI => SO= SQ and SO ⊥SQ
    Triangle SPO congruent to SAQ ( case SAS)
    SAQ is the rotational image of SPO around S , 90 degrees
    So PO=AQ and PO ⊥AQ
    Similarly OQ=CP and OQ ⊥ CP and PQ = BO and BO⊥ PQ
    In triangle OPQ, 3 altitudes QA, PC and OB will concur at orthocenter V

  2. The concurrency part is trivial by Jacobi, and the rest part can be done by Baudhiyana's Theorem.
