Question 186113: Hi. I have a problem that I'm having difficulty solving, and I'm curious if I have even been given enough information.


Without the ability to draw, this may get a bit hairy to describe, so I do apologize.


I have a triangle ABD, and there is a line segment BC which cuts the original triangle into 2 triangles (C is a point on the line segment AD).


We are given the following:
Angle ADB is 90 degrees.
Length of BD is +4sqrt%2810%29+
Length of AC is +3sqrt%282%29+


We are supposed to find the angle ABC.


I can't figure out how to do this problem, as it doesn't seem like enough information has been given. If you could please either confirm this or explain to me how to go about doing this problem, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.

If point C is just a point, not the midpoint, then there's insufficient data.
