Good afternoon Candice! Here are my workings for this question. I'm so sorry that my workings are very messy! I will rewrite them upon your request.

Candice, if you let BEC = x, you will soon realise that
- in triangle EBD, angle EBD = x
- in triangle BEC, angle EBC = x
- in triangle ABC, angle ACB = x
So, triangles ABC, CBE and BED are all similar triangles.
We proceed to use numbers to find length ED.
I just realised that there is a shorter method than this.

Thank you so much Mr Eric :)
Your working solution is clear and very neat, I can view and understand them well.
Hope you have a good day ahead and take care :)
