AHSME 1975 Problem 24

    In triangle ABCABC, ∠C=θ\angle C = \theta and ∠B=2θ\angle B = 2\theta, where 0∘<θ<60∘0^{\circ} < \theta < 60^{\circ}. The circle with center AA and radius ABAB intersects ACAC at DD and intersects BCBC, extended if necessary, at BB and at EE (EE may coincide with BB). Then EC=ADEC = AD (A) for no values of θ(B) only if θ=45∘(C) only if 0∘<θ≤45∘(D) only if 45∘≤θ≤60∘(E) for all θ such that 0∘<θ<60∘\textbf{(A)}\ \text{for no values of}\ \theta \textbf{(B)}\ \text{only if}\ \theta = 45^{\circ} \\ \textbf{(C)}\ \text{only if}\ 0^{\circ} < \theta \leq 45^{\circ} \textbf{(D)}\ \text{only if}\ 45^{\circ} \leq \theta \leq 60^{\circ} \\ \textbf{(E)}\ \text{for all}\ \theta\ \text{such that}\ 0^{\circ} < \theta < 60^{\circ}
