use AE and CE to find the angle

AE = 20, CE = 6

so the angle FOR CAE = tan^-1(6/20) = 16.7 degrees

to Find DF

a^2 = b^2 +c^2-2abcos(A)

a^2 = 10^2 + 14^2 -2(14)(10)cos(16.7)

a^2 = 30

sqrt((30)=5.47 rounded to 5.5

EF =

a^2 = b^2 +c^2-2abcos(A)

a^2 = 20^2 + 14^2 -2(14)(20)cos(16.7)

a^2 = 64

sqrt(64)=8
