AHSME 1995 Problem 8

    In △ABC\triangle ABC, ∠C=90∘,AC=6\angle C = 90^\circ, AC = 6 and BC=8BC = 8. Points DD and EE are on AB‾\overline{AB} and BC‾\overline{BC}, respectively, and ∠BED=90∘\angle BED = 90^\circ. If DE=4DE = 4, then BD=BD = (A) 5(B) 163(C) 203(D) 152(E) 8\mathrm{(A) \ 5 } \mathrm{(B) \ \frac {16}{3} } \mathrm{(C) \ \frac {20}{3} } \mathrm{(D) \ \frac {15}{2} } \mathrm{(E) \ 8 }
