Problem Statement

Let ABCDABCDABCDA'B'C'D' be a rectangular prism with AB=2BC|AB|=2|BC|. EE is a point on the edge [BB][BB'] satisfying EB=6EB|EB'|=6|EB|. Let FF and FF' be the feet of the perpendiculars from EE at AEC\triangle AEC and AEC\triangle A'EC', respectively. If m(FEF^)=60m(\widehat{FEF'})=60^{\circ}, then BC/BE=?|BC|/|BE| = ?
