October 1st and Geometry
Two towers, BC and ED, are lengths 1 and 10 respectively.
The line CD connects BC and ED such that Angle BCD = Angle EDC = 90º.
There is a point F, on the line CD, such that Angle BFE is also 90º.
The shortest possible length of CD can be expressed as √m, where m is a positive integer. Find m.
