This problem is simple if we use an adapted orthonormal. We choose center D and frst axis (DC). The problem is independant of the length DC = BD, we choose this length equal to 1 for example. So the equation of (CA) is y = -tan(30°).(x -1) or y = (-sqrt(3)/3).x + sqrt(3)/3. The equation of (DA) is y = -x. At point A, at the intesection, we have: (3 -sqrt(3)).x = sqrt(3) so x = (1 +sqrt(3))/2 when simplified. So we have A((1+sqrt(3))/2; -(1+sqrt(3))/2) As B(-1;0) then VectorBD((3+sqrt(3))/2; -(1+sqrt(3))/2) (form (m;n)), m/n = -1/sqrt(3) = -sqrt(3)/3 is equal to tan(theta), so theta = 120°
Being AEC a 30,60,90 degree right triangle if AE = X => EC = X√ 3 Being AED a right isosceles triangle AE = ED = x setting EB = y we can write the following identity: x - y = x√ 3 - x (because BD = CD) y = 2x - x√ 3 Considering triangle AEB we can write: tan (180 - theta) = x/(2x - x√ 3) = 2 + √ 3 that means that 180 - theta = 75° theta = 180 - 75 = 105
My method: Let H be the height of triangle ABC with respect to A (extending the BC line and tracing the height from point A). Let E be the intersection point between H and BC line's extension. And X = BD = DC DE = H (equilateral triangle) BE = H-X Tg30° = H/(H+X) Doing some algebra, we get the relation: X= H(root3 - 1) Lets see the tangent of angle ABE = 180°- tetha Tg (180-tetha) = H/(H-X) Lets substitute X Tg (180-theta) = H/(H - H(root3-1)) Tg (180-tetha) = 1/(2-root3) Simplifying Tg (180-tetha) = 2+ root3 I know that tg 75° = 2+root3 So, Tg(180-tetha)= tg 75° 180-tetha=75 Tetha= 105°
Application of sine rule can as well solve the problem. Sin(30)/sin(15)=sin(theta)/sin(135-theta) Then using trig. identity for sin(135-theta). Theta=-75 which is equivalent of 105 following anticlockwise measure. Please confirm
As ∠BDA is the external angle to ∆ADC at D: ∠BDA = ∠DCA + ∠CAD 45° = 30° + ∠CAD ∠CAD = 45° - 30° = 15° As BD is a straight line, ∠ADC = 180°-45° = 135°. Draw DE, such that E is the point on CA where ∠CED = 30°. As ∠CED = ∠DCE = 30°, ∆EDC is an isosceles triangle, DC = DE, and ∠EDC = 180°-(30°+30°) = 120°. As ∠ADC = 135°, ∠ADE = 135°-120° = 15°, so ∠ADE = ∠EAD, ∆DEA is an isosceles triangle, ∠DEA = 180°-(15°+15°) = 150°, and DE = EA. As BD = DE, then ∆BDE is an isosceles triangle. As ∠ADE = 15° and ∠BDA = 45°, ∠BDE = 60°, so ∠DEB = ∠EBD = 60° as well, and ∆BDE is an equilateral triangle, and EB = BD = DE. As BE = EA, ∆BEA is an isosceles triangle. As ∠DEA = 150° and ∠DEB = 60°, ∠BEA = 150°-60° = 90°, so ∠ABE = ∠EAB = 45°. ∠ABD = ∠EBD + ∠ABE θ = 60° + 45° = 105°
I did it the second way, but the first way is much more elegant. Always prefer a geometric solution over a trigonometric one. Just more beautiful.

As B(-1;0) then VectorBD((3+sqrt(3))/2; -(1+sqrt(3))/2) (form (m;n)), m/n = -1/sqrt(3) = -sqrt(3)/3 is equal to tan(theta), so theta = 120°
Being AEC a 30,60,90 degree right triangle if AE = X => EC = X√ 3
Being AED a right isosceles triangle AE = ED = x
setting EB = y we can write the following identity:
x - y = x√ 3 - x (because BD = CD)
y = 2x - x√ 3
Considering triangle AEB we can write:
tan (180 - theta) = x/(2x - x√ 3) = 2 + √ 3
that means that 180 - theta = 75°
theta = 180 - 75 = 105
My method:
Let H be the height of triangle ABC with respect to A (extending the BC line and tracing the height from point A).
Let E be the intersection point between H and BC line's extension.
And X = BD = DC
DE = H (equilateral triangle)
BE = H-X
Tg30° = H/(H+X)
Doing some algebra, we get the relation:
X= H(root3 - 1)
Lets see the tangent of angle ABE = 180°- tetha
Tg (180-tetha) = H/(H-X)
Lets substitute X
Tg (180-theta) = H/(H - H(root3-1))
Tg (180-tetha) = 1/(2-root3)
Simplifying
Tg (180-tetha) = 2+ root3
I know that tg 75° = 2+root3
So,
Tg(180-tetha)= tg 75°
180-tetha=75
Tetha= 105°
Oh, now i saw the video, and this is the second method 😅
Application of sine rule can as well solve the problem.
Sin(30)/sin(15)=sin(theta)/sin(135-theta)
Then using trig. identity for sin(135-theta).
Theta=-75 which is equivalent of 105 following anticlockwise measure.
Please confirm
Nice solution. I liked it.
Thank you 🙂
second method
Just one question, could the adapted orthonormal be applied to the last geometry problem?
I did second method before checking the solution, but first method is much more elegant
ctgθ=(√2sin15/sin30)-1..θ=-75..θ=105
15:02 How did we figure out that α=75°?
Excellent solutions🎉🎉🎉
tgθ=-2-√3...θ=-75...θ=105
Why always going round and round it can be solved simply
As ∠BDA is the external angle to ∆ADC at D:
∠BDA = ∠DCA + ∠CAD
45° = 30° + ∠CAD
∠CAD = 45° - 30° = 15°
As BD is a straight line, ∠ADC = 180°-45° = 135°.
Draw DE, such that E is the point on CA where ∠CED = 30°. As ∠CED = ∠DCE = 30°, ∆EDC is an isosceles triangle, DC = DE, and ∠EDC = 180°-(30°+30°) = 120°.
As ∠ADC = 135°, ∠ADE = 135°-120° = 15°, so ∠ADE = ∠EAD, ∆DEA is an isosceles triangle, ∠DEA = 180°-(15°+15°) = 150°, and DE = EA.
As BD = DE, then ∆BDE is an isosceles triangle. As ∠ADE = 15° and ∠BDA = 45°, ∠BDE = 60°, so ∠DEB = ∠EBD = 60° as well, and ∆BDE is an equilateral triangle, and EB = BD = DE.
As BE = EA, ∆BEA is an isosceles triangle. As ∠DEA = 150° and ∠DEB = 60°, ∠BEA = 150°-60° = 90°, so ∠ABE = ∠EAB = 45°.
∠ABD = ∠EBD + ∠ABE
θ = 60° + 45° = 105°
120
45-30=15+90=105÷360×314.159268
Easy、but good question🙂
bruhh, how could you know that 2 + sqrt(3) is equat to tan75.., can you explain it to me, thanks anyway
Here , tanA= 2 + √3
Since , tan2A = 2tanA/(1-tan^A)
Therefore,
tan2A = 2(2 + √3)/(1-(2 + √3)^2)
= 2(2 + √3)/(1- 4 - 4√3 - 3)
= 2(2+√3)/(-6-4√3)
= -2(2+√3)/2(3+2√3)
= -(2+√3)/(3+2√3)
= -(2+√3)*(3-2√3)/(3+2√3)*(3-2√3)
= -( 6 - 4√3 + 3√3 - 6)/(9-12)
= -(-√3)/(-3)
= -1/√3
tan2A = tan(π - π/6)
Hence ,
2A = 5π/6
A = 5π/12
Or A = 75°
