13 The diagram shows triangle \(ABC\).

Triangle ABC with D on AB and E on AC, DE parallel to BC; AD = 22 cm, AC = 28.2 cm, DE = 20 cm, BC = 24 cm

Diagram NOT accurately drawn

\(ADB\) and \(AEC\) are straight lines.
\(DE\) is parallel to \(BC\).
\(DE = 20\) cm,   \(BC = 24\) cm,   \(AD = 22\) cm,   \(AC = 28.2\) cm

(a) Work out the length of \(AB\). (2)
(b) Work out the length of \(EC\). (2)
