Quadrilateral ABCD is a kite. Calculate: i) Length of BD, ii) Length of AE, iii) Size of DAB

The problem asks us to calculate the length of BD, the length of AE, and the size of angle DAB for a kite ABCD.

From the diagram:

• The quadrilateral ABCD is a kite.
• The diagonals AC and BD intersect at point E.
• The diagonals are perpendicular, indicated by the square symbol at E.
• The length DE is given as 3 cm.
• An angle is given as 40 degrees. This angle is drawn at vertex B, between segments BE and BC, so it represents $\angle CBE = 40^\circ$.

However, if $\angle CBE = 40^\circ$, we cannot determine the length of AE or the size of $\angle DAB$ with the given information. A common setup for such problems is that the angle provided is one of the angles in the upper triangle, $\triangle AED$. Given that all parts of the question are expected to be solvable, we will assume that the 40-degree angle is actually $\angle DAE$ (or $\angle BAE$), despite its placement in the diagram. This assumption allows us to solve for all requested values.

Assumption: The 40-degree angle is $\angle DAE = 40^\circ$.
