In $\triangle ABC$, $AB=AC=12$ cm and D is a point on side BC such that $AD=8$ cm. If AD is extended to a point E such that $\angle ACB=\angle AEB$, then the length, in cm, of AE is

The length of each side of an equilateral triangle ABC is $3 \mathrm{~cm}$. Let D be a point on BC such that the area of triangle ADC is half the area of triangle $A B D$. Then the length of $A D$, in cm , is

Given an equilateral triangle $\mathrm{T} 1$ with side $24 \mathrm{~cm}$, a second triangle $\mathrm{T} 2$ is formed by joining the midpoints of the sides of $\mathrm{T} 1$. Then a third triangle $\mathrm{T} 3$ is formed by joining the midpoints of the sides of $\mathrm{T} 2$. If this process of forming triangles is continued, the sum of the areas, in sq cm , of infinitely many such triangles $\mathrm{T} 1, \mathrm{~T} 2, \mathrm{~T} 3, \ldots$ will be
