sure, can you show me what you did?
Have you tried to draw the diagram out?
Can you also show the figure they gave?
oh this looks fun
Try to use the area formulas for a triangle, specifically [ABC]=rs, where r is the inradius, s is the semiperimeter, and [ABC] is the area of the triangle.
Then set them equal to each other, and let AE (the line from A to the point of contact on AC) be x, and just solve for x and thus find AB and AC.
Sorry, I figured this out sometime yesterday but didn’t have access to my phone.
