  1. Let n=BA1 .BA2 = BC1.BC2
    and m=AB1.AB2=AC1.AC2 ; p=CA1.CA2=CB1.CB2
    1. Apply Ceva’s theorem for triangle ABC and point of concurrent P1
    (A1B/A1C) * (B1C/B1A) *(C1A/C1B)=1

    2. Replace BA1=m/BA2 ; CA1=p/CA2 etc…. in above equation and simplify we have :
    we get (A2B/A2C) (B2C/B2A)(C2A/C2B)= 1 .
    Per Ceva’s theorem AA2,BB2, CC2 are concurrent at P2

  2. From Ceva's theorem ( the power of P1 ) we get(AB1/CB1).(CA1/BA1).(BC1/AC1) = 1
    Substitute BA1/BC1 = BC2/BA2 and so on ... => (AB2/CB2).(CA2/BA2).(BC2/AC2) = 1
