For the time being I'll just leave with a descriptive solution .

WLOG you can assume the triangle to be an equilateral one . It'll be much easier that way. I'll post a full solution after some time, gotta go .

And Congratulations on solving 500 questions, I hope that you'll soon post a question with the title "Celebrating 1000 Problems solved " .

But there is a way to solve in general without assuming the triangle is equilateral

Thanks for your participation (y)
