4 : EA = 1 : DC 2 : DC = 5 : EA 3 : EA = 2 : DC 1 : DC = 2 : EA

now can you?

if DE is || to CA then the sides of the triangle are transversals |dw:1359074409155:dw| if the lines are parallel then the marked angles are equal "corresponding angles" of a transversal if the angles are all the same, the top little triangle is similar to the big triangle. that means you want the sides to be in proportion
