Dynamic Geometry 1479: Triangle, Circumcircle, Angle Bisector, Perpendicular Bisector, Chord, Concyclic Points, Parallel Lines, Step-by-step Illustration

For a triangle ABC with circumcircle c1 and internal angle bisector BD (see diagram) let EF be perpendicular to BD, GH perpendicular bisector of AE, and JK perpendicular bisector of CF. Chord HL passes through E and chord KM passes through F, Prove that (1) Points M, E, F, and L are concyclic; (2) EF and HK are parallel.
