Plane Geometry Triangle Problem Set

The document describes a triangle ABC with sides of lengths 63 cm, 25 cm, and 52 cm and a perpendicular line AD. It asks to (1) find the area of triangle ABC and length of AD, (2) describes folding triangle ABC along AD so that B' is above C and asks to find angles between planes, and (3) asks to find the shortest path length for an ant crawling from C to the midpoint M of A'B'.
