Two ships are approaching a port along straight routes at constant speeds. Initially, the two ships and the port formed an equilateral triangle with sides of length $24$ km. When the slower ship travelled $8$ km, the triangle formed by the new positions of the two ships and the port became right-angled. When the faster ship reaches the port, the distance, in km, between the other ship and the port will be

Let $D$ and $E$ be points on sides $A B$ and $A C$, respectively, of a triangle $A B C$, such that $A D: B D=2: 1$ and $A E: C E=2: 3$. If the area of the triangle $A D E$ is $8 \mathrm{ sq } \mathrm{cm}$, then the area of the triangle $ABC$ , in sq cm , is

In a $\triangle ABC$, points $D$ and $E$ are on the sides $BC$ and $AC$, respectively. $BE$ and $AD$ intersect at point $T$ such that $AD:AT = 4:3$, and $BE:BT = 5:4$. Point $F$ lies on $AC$ such that $DF$ is parallel to $BE$. Then, $BD:CD$ is
