$ABC$ is a triangle with $\angle A = 90^\circ$, $\angle B = 60^\circ$. The points $A_1$, $B_1$, $C_1$ on $BC$, $CA$, $AB$ respectively are such that $A_1B_1C_1$ is equilateral and the perpendiculars (to $BC$ at $A_1$, to $CA$ at $B_1$ and to $AB$ at $C_1$) meet at a point $P$ inside the triangle. Find the ratios $PA_1:PB_1:PC_1$.
Each of the sides $ BC, CA, AB $ of the triangle $ ABC $ was divided into three equal parts and on the middle sections of these sides as bases, equilateral triangles were built outside the triangle $ ABC $, the third vertices of which were marked with the letters $ A', B' , C' $ respectively. In addition, points $ A'', B'', C'' $ were determined, symmetrical to $ A', B', C' $ respectively with respect to the lines $ BC, CA, AB $. Prove that the triangles $ A'B'C' $ and $ A''B''C'' $ are equilateral and have the same center of gravity as the triangle $ ABC $.
