  In a convex quadrilateral ABCD, diagonals AC and BD intersect at E, while perpendicular bisectors of AB and CD intersect at F, and those of BC and DA intersect at G. Prove: (1) E, F, and G are collinear, (2) AE:EC = BF:FD, and (3) CG:GD = AF:FB.

E,F and G are not always collinear. You can  check by constructing some quadrilaterals with  satisfied conditions.
