Problem

(IMO 1999) Two circles with centres \(A\) and \(C\) intersect at the points \(B\) and \(G\), moreover the circle with centre \(C\) goes through \(A\). A big circle is tangent to both given circles at the points \(E\) and \(F\) (see picture). The line \(BG\) intersects the big circle at the points \(H\) and \(I\). The segments \(EH\) and \(EI\) intersect with the circle with centre \(C\) at the points \(H\) and \(K\) respectively. Prove that the segment \(JK\) is tangent to the circle with center at \(A\).
