CityProof

A convex quadrilateral \(ABCD\) satisfies

\[ \angle DAB + \angle ABC = 120^\circ. \]

Points \(P\) and \(Q\) are chosen so that the triangles \(ACP\) and \(BDQ\) are equilateral, with \(P\) lying in the half-plane bounded by the line \(AC\) that does not contain \(B\), and \(Q\) in the half-plane bounded by the line \(BD\) that does not contain \(A\). Prove that the lines \(PQ\), \(AD\) and \(BC\) all pass through one point.

The data of the problem. The two equilateral triangles are erected on the diagonals, each away from the remaining vertex.
