BONUS PROBLEM!!

Bonus problem #2: Let ABC be a right-angled triangle with angle ABC = 90 degrees (so the right angle is at vertex B), and let D be the point on side AB such that AD = 2DB. What is the maximum possible value of angle ACD? (Hint: This is a max-min problem, and the first hard thing is to figure out what the variables are!)

For full credit, you must be as specific as you possibly can! When you have solved it, either write up the solution by hand and give it to me, or else send the solution to

deturck@math.upenn.edu

by electronic mail - extra credit for the first complete solution I receive.
