Answer:

  a)  CD = 5.7

  b)  ED = 3.05

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle ABE is similar to triangle ACD by AA similarity. This means we can write the proportions ...

a) CD/BE = AC/AB

  CD = BE(AC/AB) = 3.8(12.3/8.2)

  CD = 5.7

__

b) ED/AD = BC/AC

  ED = AD((AC -AB)/AC) = 9.15(12.3 -8.2)/12.3

  ED = 3.05
