The quadrilateral ABCDABCD is an isosceles trapezoid, where AB∥CDAB\parallel CD. The trapezoid is inscribed in a circle with radius RR and center on side ABAB. Point EE lies on the circumscribed circle and is such that ∠DAE=90o\angle DAE = 90^o. Given that AEAB=34\frac{AE}{AB}=\frac34, calculate the length of the sides of the isosceles trapezoid.
