+ | Again, let the intersection of <math>AE</math> and <math>BC</math> be <math>G</math>. By AA similarity, <math>\triangle AFG \sim \triangle CDG</math> with a <math>\frac{7}{3}</math> ratio.

+ | Let <math>P = AD \cap FC</math>, and <math>K = AE \cap BC</math>. Also let <math>AP = x</math>. | ||
+ | |||
+ | <math>CK</math> also has to be <math>x</math> by parallelogram properties. Then <math>PD</math> and <math>BK</math> must be <math>11-x</math> because the sum of the segments has to be <math>11</math>. | ||

− | C | + | 9 + (11-x)^2 &= PC^2 |

+ | It follows shortly that <math>PC = \sqrt{x^2-22x+30}</math>. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Also, <math>FC = 9</math>, and <math>FP + PC = 9</math>. We can then say that <math>PC = \sqrt{x^2-22x+30}</math>, so <math>FP = 9 - \sqrt{x^2-22x+30}</math>. | ||
