Solution
As we can see,
is the midpoint of and is the midpoint of
is a triangle, so .
is triangle.
and are parallel lines so is triangle also.
Then if we use those informations we get and
and or
Now we know that , we can find for which is simpler to find.
We can use point to split it up as ,
We can chase those lengths and we would get
, so , so , so
Then using right triangle , we have HB=10 sin (15∘)
So HB=10 sin (15∘)=.
And we know that .
Finally if we calculate .
. So our final answer is .
Thank you.
