    Once figured out the angle of CEB, I got the EC = 2* EB = 30, as DCE = CDE , DE = EC = 30, as BC = 15 sqrt3, the green area = 1/2 * 30 * sqrt3 = 15 sqrt3.

    At first I didn't even think of the tangents of the angles, so I did it through the outer corner: ADC= DCE+CED. So CED is 120°, hence it is clear that CDE = 30°, which means the triangle CDE is isosceles. Now we use the outer angle CED, and find the angle BCE equal to 30°, and since in a right triangle BCE the catheter lying against the angle 30 ° is equal to half of the hypotenuse, the hypotenuse CE will be equal to 30. According to the Pythagorean theorem, we find the cathet CB. CB = 15√3. And finally: using the triangle area formula, we find the area of the triangle CDE. S = 1/2 * DE*CB (DE=CE) means S = 1/2*30*15√3 = 225√3. But your method is more beautiful and accurate.

    Much easier to recognize that triangle ECB is a 30/60/90 triangle, making h (CB) = 15sqrt3 and EC = 30. Because triangle DCE is isosceles, DE (the base) is also 30, and area = (1/2)*30*(15sqrt3) = 225sqrt3

    External angle ADC = 150 deg, which makes angle CED 120 deg. and angle CDE = 30 deg. External angle DEC = 120 makes angle ECB = 30 deg & angle BEC = 60 deg. BEC is a 30-60-90 rt triangle with short leg 15, which makes the hyp. CE = 2(BE) = 30 & long leg BC = 15V3 (15 sqrt(3)). CDE is an isosceles triangle (base angles 30 deg) makes DE = CE = 30. Area of green triangle = (1/2) b h = (1/2) (DE) (BC) = (1/2) (30) (15V3) = 225V3. Done!

    One of the neat things about mathematics is that sometimes there is more than just one way to figure out the answer. What really helps confirm the solution to a problem is when multiple methods give the same answer. Sometimes geometry problems can be solved using trigonometry and analytic geometry, and sometimes you can use Euclidean techniques and save yourself a lot of calculations. I have a tendency to use the former method rather than the later, failing to see the short cuts that may exist within Euclidean geometry. After solving the problem along the lines shown by Pre-Math, I saw that there were a couple of things from Euclidean geometry that greatly reduce calculations. Since

    Alternate method in finding h. Focusing on smaller rt triangle EBC Since we see that triangle EBC is a 30-60-90 rt triangle, and h=EB*sqrt(3) Therefore, h= 15 sqrt(3) Then we can use the tan 30 = h/(x+15) in triangle DBC sqrt(3)/3 = 15*sqrt(3)/(x+15) 1/3=15/(x+15) x+15=45 x=30

    I started off the same way by figuring out the base angles: ∠CDE = 30°, ∠CED = 120°, ∠CEB = 60°. Since △CEB is a 30-60-90 triangle, with side opposite 30° angle = 15, then hypotenuse CE = 2 * 15 = 30 In △CED, ∠CDE = 30° = ∠DCE. So triangle is isosceles with DE = CE = 30. Also, angle between these sides (∠CED) = 120° Area = 1/2 * 30 * 30 * sin(120°) = 1/2 * 30 * 30 * √3/2 = *225√3*

    Nice problem. I solved it in a similar way but to find the hight I did the following; A right triangle with an 60º angle always has the proportion 2:1:√3 Triangle BEC is a 60º right triangle and it's shortest side is 15. To contain the right proportions you need to multiply the other two sides by 15 as well. Therefore it's hypotenuse is 30 and it's hight (=line BC) is 15√3

The value of EC could also have been deduced from the well-known plot of the double angle that allows us to deduce: If ꓥCEB=60º and ꓥCDE=30º → ꓥCEB=2ꓥCDE → DE=EC=30 On the other hand, ∆CDB is also half of an equilateral triangle and we can deduce the following: DB=CB√3=15√3√3=15x3=45 → DE=DB-EB=45-15=30 With the above data we can now calculate the area sought: Area ∆DCE=DExCB/2=30x15√3/2=15x15√3=225√3

    I could tell early in the problem that the diagram was not an accurate representation when I found that the smaller angles in the middle triangle were 30 degrees and the sides opposite those angles were not close to equal. I noticed that the triangle on the right was a 60,30,90 triangle with proportional sides of x,2x, and root3 x. Using side EB = 15 Triangle then has proportional sides of 15,30, and 15 root 3. DE = CE = 30 because they are equal sides opposite equal angles of triangle CDE. Finally, the area of Triangle CDE is (30x15root3)/2 = 225 root3.

    I skipped the trig and used the triangle EBC as a 30/60/90 so I know the sides are in a 1/2/3^.5 relationship so the BC is 15*3^.5. We know that triangle DBC is a 30/60/90. That means DB = 15*3.^.5*3^.5 = 45. 45-15 = 30 for our base and our height is still 15*3^.5. :-) Always more than one way to skin a cat.

    @@PreMath - It has been watching your videos that has gotten me thinking about geometry and higher math again. I have gotten my brother working on these and even my mom on some of the simple ones or I create something for her that is at her level of relearning math. I started the journey so I could stay one step ahead of my daughter as she goes through more complex math at school. Keep up the great work and full explanation on each video. I appreciate the reminders about axioms related to the problem.

    Giving the value of AD=15 is not necessary to solve the problem. An alternative method to approach it is to observe that CE=DE and CE is equal to (1/cos 60 )* 15 = 30. This leads to the required area A=1/2 * 30^2 * sin 120 = 225 sqrt(3).

    I guess we don't need to know the length of AD: CDE = 180° - 150° = 30° CED = 180° - 30° - 30° = 120° BEC = 180° - 120° = 60° BCE = 180° - 90° - 60° = 30° Triangle BCE is a 30-60-90° triangle: - BE = 15 - CE = 2 * 15 = 30 - BC = 15 * √3 Triangle BCD is a 30-60-90° triangle: - BC = 15 * √3 - CD = 2 * 15 * √3 = 30 * √3 - BD = 15 * √3 * √3 = 15 * 3 = 45 => DE = 45 - 15 = 30 A = 1/2 * DE * BC = 1/2 * 30 * 15 * √3 = 15 * 15 * √3 = 225 * √3 ≈ 389.7 square units

    This is impossible, the reason is from following steps: step1. get boundary condition: AC=sqrt(AB^2+BC^2)=15sqrt(19), CD=sqrt(DB^2+BC^2)=15sqrt(12), sin(CAD)=sin(CAB)=CB/AC=sqrt(3)/sqrt(19),cos(CAB)=4/sqrt(19), sin(ACD)=sin(180-150-DAC)=sin(30-DAC)=sin(30-CAB)=2/sqrt(19) - 3/2sqrt(19)=1/2sqrt(19), step2. By triangle formula, BC/sin(A)=AC/sin(B)=AB/sin(C): in ACD: AC/sin(ADC)=15sqrt(19)/(1/2)=30sqrt(19) CD/sin(CAD)=15sqrt(12)/[4/sqrt(19)]=15sqrt(57)/2, not 30sqrt(19) AD/sin(ACD)=15/[1/2sqrt(19)]=30sqrt(19) step3. in ACD, formula BC/sin(A)=AC/sin(B)=AB/sin(C) is not exist. So, This question is impossible.

    proportions are crap i didn't want to believe it was an isosceles triangle but i guess it isn't to scale

    Unsanely innecesary steps... EBC is 30/60/90 so BC = 15√3 EB = 30 DEC is isosceles ∆ so DE = 30 Finally A = (DE)(BC)/2 = (30)(15√3)/(2)= 225√3

    It seems that x is smaller than 30 according to the graph

    Shape is not true to the scale. I should have mentioned it at the beginning. Thanks for your feedback! Cheers! You are awesome, Ortega. Keep it up 👍
