Question Number 11183 by Nayon last updated on 15/Mar/17

Answered by mrW1 last updated on 16/Mar/17

let x=((AD)/(AB))  ⇒DE=x×BC  a=ABC=(1/2)×BC×h  ADC=(1/2)×DE×h=(1/2)×x×BC×h=xa  ADE=(1/2)×DE×x×h=(1/2)×x×BC×x×h=x^2 a  BCED=ABC−ADE=a−x^2 a=(1−x^2 )a    ((ADC)/(BCDE))=2  ⇒((xa)/((1−x^2 )a))=2  ⇒2(1−x^2 )=x  ⇒2x^2 +x−2=0  ⇒x=((−1+(√(1+4×2×2)))/(2×2))=(((√(17))−1)/4)  ⇒AD=x×AB=(((√(17))−1)/4)×20=5((√(17))−1)

$${let}\:{x}=\frac{{AD}}{{AB}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{DE}={x}×{BC} \\ $$$${a}={ABC}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}×{BC}×{h} \\ $$$${ADC}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}×{DE}×{h}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}×{x}×{BC}×{h}={xa} \\ $$$${ADE}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}×{DE}×{x}×{h}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}×{x}×{BC}×{x}×{h}={x}^{\mathrm{2}} {a} \\ $$$${BCED}={ABC}−{ADE}={a}−{x}^{\mathrm{2}} {a}=\left(\mathrm{1}−{x}^{\mathrm{2}} \right){a} \\ $$$$ \\ $$$$\frac{{ADC}}{{BCDE}}=\mathrm{2} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\frac{{xa}}{\left(\mathrm{1}−{x}^{\mathrm{2}} \right){a}}=\mathrm{2} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\mathrm{2}\left(\mathrm{1}−{x}^{\mathrm{2}} \right)={x} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\mathrm{2}{x}^{\mathrm{2}} +{x}−\mathrm{2}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{x}=\frac{−\mathrm{1}+\sqrt{\mathrm{1}+\mathrm{4}×\mathrm{2}×\mathrm{2}}}{\mathrm{2}×\mathrm{2}}=\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{17}}−\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{4}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{AD}={x}×{AB}=\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{17}}−\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{4}}×\mathrm{20}=\mathrm{5}\left(\sqrt{\mathrm{17}}−\mathrm{1}\right) \\ $$

I read ADC as ADE. Now it′s fixed. Thank you!

you have done a mistake it′s ADC=2BCED

$${you}\:{have}\:{done}\:{a}\:{mistake}\:{it}'{s}\:{ADC}=\mathrm{2}{BCED} \\ $$
