Hello Albert,
But then I think BC doesn't have a unique length. Take BC =16 and the mid point of BC be D. Point E is on the side of BC different from that of A and ED=2 with ED perpendicular to BC. In fact any value of BC>16 can provide a configuration confirming to the hypothesis if the question.Point E is on angle bisector of angle A, and AE=10
E is not on BC (from the diagram given)
$10$ and $40/3$. Is this correct?yes, the length of BC is not unique ,it depends on how student draw the diagram
sometimes we plot an open problem ,and want to test the abilities of students in analyzing
now using the diagram given if I said BC=$\dfrac {50}{3}$
what wiil be the sum of the three side lengths of triangle ABC ?
