Answer:

ED = AB = 25√3

Explanation:

Let ED = AB = X

DC = 100 - BC

Tan 60 =
(√(3) )/(1) = (ED)/(DC) =
(X)/(100-BC)


√(3) (100-BC) = X

Tan 30 =
(1)/(√(3) ) = (AB)/(BC) = (X)/(BC)


(BC)/(√(3) ) = X


√(3) (100-BC) = (BC)/(√(3) ) \\3(100-BC) = BC\\300 - 3BC = BC\\300 = BC + 3BC\\300 = 4BC \\75 = BC

X =
(BC)/(√(3) ) = (75)/(√(3) )\\

X = 25√3
