Basically, by PoP, you have that <cmath>CE \times DE = (10\sqrt{2}-2\sqrt{5})(2\sqrt{5}) = 20\sqrt{10} - 20.</cmath> Therefore, as <math>CE^2 + DE^2 = (CD)^2 - 2(CE \times DE),</math> basically, once you find <math>CD^2,</math> the problem is done. Now, this is an IMPORTANT concept: If you have a circle which you know the radius of and you want to find the length of a chord of that circle, drop an altitude from the center of the circle to the chord to find distance between the center of the circle and the chord.
 +
 +
In this case, let <math>M</math> be the midpoint of chord <math>CD.</math> Notice that now we can use our <math>45^\circ{}</math> angle, since <math>OME</math> is a <math>45^\circ{}-45^\circ{}-90^\circ{}</math> triangle so that <math>ME = x</math> and <math>OE = x\sqrt{2}.</math> However, we have that <math>OE = 5\sqrt{2}-2\sqrt{5},</math> so that <math>x = 5 - \sqrt{10}.</math> Now, notice that <math>x^2 = 35 - 10\sqrt{10},</math> so that <cmath>CM^2 = 50 - x^2 = 50 - (35 - 10\sqrt{10}) = 15 + 10 \sqrt{10}</cmath> and <cmath>CD^2 = 60 + 4\sqrt{10}.</cmath> Therefore, <cmath>CE^2 + DE^2 = CD^2 - 2(CE \times DE) = (60+4\sqrt{10}) - 2(2\sqrt{10} - 20) = (60+4\sqrt{10}) + (40-4\sqrt{10}) = \boxed{\textbf{(E)}\ 100}.</cmath>

This may not be the “shortest solution”, but in my opinion is very well motivated and doesn’t require much creativity. [Not requiring much creativity, it also saves more time than you’d think. ;)]

Solution 1 (Pythagorean Theorem)

Let $O$ be the center of the circle, and $X$ be the midpoint of $\overline{CD}$. Let $CX=a$ and $EX=b$. This implies that $DE = a - b$. Since $CE = CX + EX = a + b$, we now want to find $(a+b)^2+(a-b)^2=2(a^2+b^2)$. Since $\angle CXO$ is a right angle, by Pythagorean theorem $a^2 + b^2 = CX^2 + OX^2 = (5\sqrt{2})^2=50$. Thus, our answer is $2\times50=\boxed{\textbf{(E)}\ 100}$.

~JHawk0224

Solution 2 (Power of a Point)

Let $O$ be the center of the circle, and $X$ be the midpoint of $CD$. Draw triangle $OCD$, and median $OX$. Because $OC = OD$, $OCD$ is isosceles, so $OX$ is also an altitude of $OCD$. $OE = 5\sqrt2 - 2\sqrt5$, and because angle $OEC$ is $45$ degrees and triangle $OXE$ is right, $OX = EX = \frac{5\sqrt2 - 2\sqrt5}{\sqrt2} = 5 - \sqrt{10}$. Because triangle $OXC$ is right, $CX = \sqrt{(5\sqrt2)^2 - (5 - \sqrt{10})^2} = \sqrt{15 + 10\sqrt{10}}$. Thus, $CD = 2\sqrt{15 + 10\sqrt{10}}$.

We are looking for $CE^2$ + $DE^2$ which is also $(CE + DE)^2 - 2 \cdot CE \cdot DE$.

Because $CE + DE = CD = 2\sqrt{15 + 10\sqrt{10}}$, $(CE + DE)^2 = CD^2=4(15 + 10\sqrt{10}) = 60 + 40\sqrt{10}$.

By Power of a Point, $CE \cdot DE = AE \cdot BE = 2\sqrt5\cdot(10\sqrt2 - 2\sqrt5) = 20\sqrt{10} - 20$, so $2 \cdot CE \cdot DE = 40\sqrt{10} - 40$.

Finally, $CE^2 + DE^2 = (CE+ED)^2-2\cdot CE \cdot DE=(60 + 40\sqrt{10}) - (40\sqrt{10} - 40) = \boxed{\textbf{(E)}\ 100}$.

Solution 3 (Law of Cosines)

Let $O$ be the center of the circle. Notice how $OC = OD = r$, where $r$ is the radius of the circle. By applying the law of cosines on triangle $OCE$, \[r^2=CE^2+OE^2-2(CE)(OE)\cos{45}=CE^2+OE^2-(CE)(OE)\sqrt{2}.\]

Similarly, by applying the law of cosines on triangle $ODE$, \[r^2=DE^2+OE^2-2(DE)(OE)\cos{135}=DE^2+OE^2+(DE)(OE)\sqrt{2}.\]

By subtracting these two equations, we get \[CE^2-DE^2-(CE)(OE)\sqrt{2}-(DE)(OE)\sqrt{2}=0.\] We can rearrange it to get \[CE^2-DE^2=(CE)(OE)\sqrt{2}+(DE)(OE)\sqrt{2}=(CE+DE)(OE\sqrt{2}).\]

Because both $CE$ and $DE$ are both positive, we can safely divide both sides by $(CE+DE)$ to obtain $CE-DE=OE\sqrt{2}$. Because $OE = OB - BE = 5\sqrt{2} - 2\sqrt{5}$, \[(CE-DE)^2 = CE^2+DE^2 - 2(CE)(DE) = (OE\sqrt{2})^2 =2(5\sqrt{2} - 2\sqrt{5})^2 = 140 - 40\sqrt{10}.\]

Through power of a point, we can find out that $(CE)(DE)=20\sqrt{10} - 20$, so \[CE^2+DE^2 = (CE-DE)^2+ 2(CE)(DE)= (140 - 40\sqrt{10}) + 2(20\sqrt{10} - 20) = \boxed{\textbf{(E)}\ 100}.\]

Solution 4 (Reflections)

[asy] /* Made by sofas103; edited by MRENTHUSIASM */ size(250); pair O, A, B, C, D, E, D1; O = origin; A = (-5*sqrt(2),0); B = (5*sqrt(2),0); E = (5*sqrt(2)-2*sqrt(5),0); path p; p = Circle(O,5*sqrt(2)); C = intersectionpoint(p,E--E+10*dir(135)); D = intersectionpoint(p,E--E+10*dir(-45)); D1 = (D.x,-D.y); draw(p); dot("$O$",O,1.5*S,linewidth(4)); dot("$A$",A,1.5*dir(A),linewidth(4)); dot("$B$",B,1.5*dir(B),linewidth(4)); dot("$E$",E,1.5*dir(180+135/2),linewidth(4)); dot("$C$",C,1.5*dir(C),linewidth(4)); dot("$D$",D,1.5*dir(D),linewidth(4)); dot("$D'$",D1,1.5*dir(D1),linewidth(4)); draw(A--B^^C--D^^C--D1--O--cycle^^D1--E); [/asy] Let $O$ be the center of the circle. By reflecting $D$ across the line $AB$ to produce $D'$, we have that $\angle BED'=45$. Since $\angle AEC=45$, $\angle CED'=90$. Since $DE=ED'$, by the Pythagorean Theorem, our desired solution is just $CD'^2$. Looking next to circle arcs, we know that $\angle AEC=\frac{\overarc{AC}+\overarc{BD}}{2}=45$, so $\overarc{AC}+\overarc{BD}=90$. Since $\overarc{BD'}=\overarc{BD}$, and $\overarc{AC}+\overarc{BD'}+\overarc{CD'}=180$, $\overarc{CD'}=90$. Thus, $\angle COD'=90$. Since $OC=OD'=5\sqrt{2}$, by the Pythagorean Theorem, the desired $CD'^2= \boxed{\textbf{(E)}\ 100}$.

Solution 5 (Basically Solution 2 With Motivation)

Basically, by PoP, you have that \[CE \times DE = (10\sqrt{2}-2\sqrt{5})(2\sqrt{5}) = 20\sqrt{10} - 20.\] Therefore, as $CE^2 + DE^2 = (CD)^2 - 2(CE \times DE),$ basically, once you find $CD^2,$ the problem is done. Now, this is an IMPORTANT concept: If you have a circle which you know the radius of and you want to find the length of a chord of that circle, drop an altitude from the center of the circle to the chord to find distance between the center of the circle and the chord.

In this case, let $M$ be the midpoint of chord $CD.$ Notice that now we can use our $45^\circ{}$ angle, since $OME$ is a $45^\circ{}-45^\circ{}-90^\circ{}$ triangle so that $ME = x$ and $OE = x\sqrt{2}.$ However, we have that $OE = 5\sqrt{2}-2\sqrt{5},$ so that $x = 5 - \sqrt{10}.$ Now, notice that $x^2 = 35 - 10\sqrt{10},$ so that \[CM^2 = 50 - x^2 = 50 - (35 - 10\sqrt{10}) = 15 + 10 \sqrt{10}\] and \[CD^2 = 60 + 4\sqrt{10}.\] Therefore, \[CE^2 + DE^2 = CD^2 - 2(CE \times DE) = (60+4\sqrt{10}) - 2(2\sqrt{10} - 20) = (60+4\sqrt{10}) + (40-4\sqrt{10}) = \boxed{\textbf{(E)}\ 100}.\]

This may not be the “shortest solution”, but in my opinion is very well motivated and doesn’t require much creativity. [Not requiring much creativity, it also saves more time than you’d think. ;)]

Solution 6 (Double Power of a Point)

[asy] /* Made by sofas103; edited by MRENTHUSIASM */ size(250); pair O, A, B, C, D, E, P, Q; O = origin; A = (-5*sqrt(2),0); B = (5*sqrt(2),0); E = (5*sqrt(2)-2*sqrt(5),0); P = (5*sqrt(2), -4.5); Q=(5*sqrt(2)-2*sqrt(5)-0.5, 0); path p; p = Circle(O,5*sqrt(2)); C = intersectionpoint(p,E--E+10*dir(135)); D = intersectionpoint(p,E--E+10*dir(-45)); draw(p); dot("$A$",A,1.5*dir(A),linewidth(4)); dot("$B$",B,1.5*dir(B),linewidth(4)); dot("$E$",E,1.5*dir(180+135/2),linewidth(4)); dot("$C$",C,1.5*dir(C),linewidth(4)); dot("$D$",D,1.5*dir(D),linewidth(4)); dot("$P$",P,1.5*dir(P),linewidth(4)); label("$45^{\circ}$",Q,NW); draw(A--B^^C--P--B); draw((5*sqrt(2), 0)--(5*sqrt(2)-0.4, 0)--(5*sqrt(2)-0.4, -0.4)--(5*sqrt(2), -0.4)); [/asy] For ease of notation, let $x = DE$ and $y=EC$. Extend $\overline{CD}$ to point $P$ until $\overline{BP}$ is perpendicular to $AB$. It's given that $\angle AEC = 45^{\circ}$, so, by vertical angles, we have $\angle BEP = \angle EPB = 45^{\circ}$.

Since $PEB$ is a $45-45-90$ right triangle, we have $BE = BP = 2\sqrt{5}$ and $PE=2\sqrt{10}$. Hence, $PD = 2\sqrt{10}-x.$

By Power of a Point, we have

\[PB^2 = PD\cdot PC\] \[20 = \left(2\sqrt{10}-x\right)\left(y + 2\sqrt{10}\right).\]

Isolating the variables after expanding gives $x-y = 2\sqrt{10}-10.$

Using Power of a Point again, we have

\[DE\cdot EC = BE\cdot EA\] \[xy = 2\sqrt{5}\left(10\sqrt{2}-2\sqrt{5} \right)\] \[xy = 20\sqrt{10}-20.\] To get $x^2 + y^2$, we can perform the operation $(x-y)^2 + 2xy$. Plugging these values in,

\[(x-y)^2 + 2xy = \left(2\sqrt{10}-10\right)^2 + 2\left(20\sqrt{10}-20\right)\] \[= 40 + 100 - 40\sqrt{10} + 40\sqrt{10} - 40 = \boxed{\textbf{(E)}\ 100}\]

Solution 7 (Cheating)

Perhaps not reliable in general, but very useful as a last resort. The choice of the radius $5\sqrt2$ is strange, and is probably motivated by a nice answer in the end, so we only consider integer options. Notice that a 5 also appears in the condition $BE=2\sqrt5$, therefore it will likely be present in the answer as well; the only integer containing a factor of 5 amongst the choices is 100, thus the answer is $\boxed{\textbf{(E)}\ 100}$
