ABC,equilateral.  CD=CE=8,AD=EB=4,DE=3  ⇒  AB=?

$${ABC},{equilateral}. \\ $$$${CD}={CE}=\mathrm{8},{AD}={EB}=\mathrm{4},{DE}=\mathrm{3} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:\:{AB}=? \\ $$

AB=a  ((a/2)−(3/2))^2 +((((√3)a)/2)−(√(8^2 −((3/2))^2 )))^2 =4^2   (a−3)^2 +((√3)a−(√(247)))^2 =64  a^2 −6a+9+3a^2 −2(√(741))a+247=64  4a^2 −2(3+(√(741)))a+191=0  a=((3+(√(741))+(√((3+(√(741)))^2 −4×191)))/4)  ⇒a=((3+(√(741))+(√(6(√(741))−14)))/4)≈10.61

$${AB}={a} \\ $$$$\left(\frac{{a}}{\mathrm{2}}−\frac{\mathrm{3}}{\mathrm{2}}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} +\left(\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{3}}{a}}{\mathrm{2}}−\sqrt{\mathrm{8}^{\mathrm{2}} −\left(\frac{\mathrm{3}}{\mathrm{2}}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} }\right)^{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{4}^{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\left({a}−\mathrm{3}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} +\left(\sqrt{\mathrm{3}}{a}−\sqrt{\mathrm{247}}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{64} \\ $$$${a}^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{6}{a}+\mathrm{9}+\mathrm{3}{a}^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{2}\sqrt{\mathrm{741}}{a}+\mathrm{247}=\mathrm{64} \\ $$$$\mathrm{4}{a}^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{2}\left(\mathrm{3}+\sqrt{\mathrm{741}}\right){a}+\mathrm{191}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$${a}=\frac{\mathrm{3}+\sqrt{\mathrm{741}}+\sqrt{\left(\mathrm{3}+\sqrt{\mathrm{741}}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{4}×\mathrm{191}}}{\mathrm{4}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{a}=\frac{\mathrm{3}+\sqrt{\mathrm{741}}+\sqrt{\mathrm{6}\sqrt{\mathrm{741}}−\mathrm{14}}}{\mathrm{4}}\approx\mathrm{10}.\mathrm{61} \\ $$
