Homework Equations
I think we can start from area of triangle which is given by:
Area of triangle CDE = ½ * CE * DE
Or 42 = ½ * CE * DE
The Attempt at a Solution
I can do some work to transform CE into AD or in my opinion AD = 3 * CE. But the question does not provide any relation between DE & DG. This is what I want to know.[/B]
Somebody please guide me how to solve it.
