Isosceles right angles

Geometry Level 4

Let F be the mid point of the side BC of the triangle ABC.Isoceles right angled triangles ABD & ACE are constructed externally on the sides AB & AC with right angles at D and E respectively. X=angle DFE .Y= F D F E \frac{FD}{FE} .Find X+Y.


The answer is 91.

Take F as O,B as +1,C as -1,A as z.Now use rotation of complex no.(D=z1 & E =z2) z 1 + 1 z 1 z \frac{z1+1}{z1-z} =i & z 2 z z 2 1 \frac{z2-z}{z2-1} =i (i^2=-1)
You will get z1=iz2 and so hence, X= angle DFE=90 & Y= F D F E \frac{FD}{FE} =1, X+Y=91 (THE ANS).
