~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Since  B,  A  and  D are three consecutive vertices of a regular hexagon,
the angle  BAD  is  120  degrees,  giving a complete answer to the problem's question.

All additional information in the post is irrelevant to the question.


I only may suggest/hypothesize that this irrelevant info is included to confuse a reader.
