<pre>

<U>HINT 1</U>.  The area of the equilateral triangle is  {{{a^2*(sqrt(3)/4)}}} square units, where "a" is its side length.

         So, in this case, the area of the equilateral triangle ABC is  {{{2^2*(sqrt(3)/4)}}} = {{{sqrt(3)}}}.



<U>HINT 2</U>.  The area of the triangle CDM is half the area of the triangle ABC.
