Calculating Length EF.


Let x be EC = CH, radius of the small inscribed circle.


a = (20-x) cm.


tanb = 10/20

b = atan(½)°


c = ½(90-2atan(½))

c = ½(atan(2)-atan(½))

c = 18.4349488229°


Calculating x, radius of the small inscribed circle.


tan18.4349488229 = x/(20-x)


20tan18.4349488229-xtan18.4349488229 = x


x+xtan18.4349488229 = 20tan18.4349488229


x = (20tan18.4349488229)÷(1+tan18.4349488229)


x = 5 cm.


d² = 5²+20²

d = 5√(17) cm.

d = 20.6155281281 cm.


tane = 5/20

e = atan(¼)°


f = 90-2atan(½)-atan(¼)

f = 22.8336541779°


It implies, length EF is;


Let it be g.


g² = 20²+20.6155281281²-2*20*20.6155281281cos22.8336541779


g = √(65) cm.

g = 8.0622577483 cm.

Again, g is length EF.
