d and e are two points respectively on sides ab and ac of triangle abc such that de is parallel to bc . if the ratio of area of triangle ade to that of the trapezium decb is 25 : 144 and bc = 13 cm , then find the length of de .
"abc and ade are similar triangles . so ( side of abc / side of ade ) ^ 2 = 169 / 25 side of abc / side of ade = 13 / 5 so the length of de = 5 answer - b"
multiply(sqrt(divide(144, add(144, 25))), 13)
