Homework Statement
I need to find the area of the square in the following figure:
Homework Equations
Basic Trig relations.
The Attempt at a Solution
I aimed to find the length of BC, but first I had to find the unknowns of the right triangle CDE, which are EC=5m, <DCE=36.86ْ , <DEC=53.13ْ .
Then I thought that I can use some trig relation for angles to get <BDC and BCD respectively (since the angles of the square are all 90ْ).
And that's where I am stuck. Any help?
