Problem Statement

Let ABCABC be an acute angled triangle with AB=15AB=15 and BC=8BC=8. Let DD be a point on ABAB such that BD=BCBD=BC. Consider points EE on ACAC such that DEB=BEC\angle DEB=\angle BEC. If α\alpha denotes the product of all possible values of AEAE, find α\lfloor \alpha \rfloor the integer part of α\alpha.
