BM = ME
So BE = 2 BM
Now, since ABE is an equilateral triangle,
Its sides are of the same length.
So AB = BE = AE
AB also = 2 BM , since AB = BE
But we also know AB is twice the length of BC.
So AB = 2 BC
Since AB = 2 BC and AB = 2 BM,
2 BC = 2 BM
BC = BM
Hence triangle BMC is an isosceles triangle.
From here, it should be easy to solve.
