Question
In the given figure, $\triangle\text{ABC}$ is an equilateral triangle. Find $\text{m}\angle\text{BEC}.$ 
✓
Answer
Since, $\triangle\text{ABC}$ is an equilateral triangle Then, $\angle\text{BAC}=60^\circ$ $\therefore\angle\text{BAC}+\angle\text{BEC}=180^\circ$ [Opposite angle of cyclic quad.] $\Rightarrow60^\circ+\angle\text{BEC}=180^\circ$ $\Rightarrow\angle\text{BEC}=180^\circ-60^\circ=120^\circ$

Start with a point $O$ and draw a line segment $O P_1$ of unit length. Draw a line segment $P_1 P_2$ perpendicular to $O P_1$ of unit length (see Fig.). Now draw a line segment $P_2 P_3$ perpendicular to $O P_2$. Then draw a line segment $P_3 P_4$ perpendicular to $O P_3$. Continuing in this manner, you can get the line segment $P_{n-1} P_n$ by drawing a line segment of unit length perpendicular to $OP _{n-1}$. In this manner, you will have created the points $P _2$, $P_3, \ldots, P_n, \ldots$, and joined them to create a beautiful spiral depicting $\sqrt{2}, \sqrt{3}, \sqrt{4}, \ldots$
