2005 AMC 10B Problem 14
Equilateral \triangle ABC has side length 2, M is the midpoint of \overline{AC}, and C is the midpoint of \overline{BD}. What is the area of \triangle CDM? ![[asy]defaultpen(linewidth(.8pt)+fontsize(8pt)); pair B = (0,0); pair A = 2*dir(60); pair C = (2,0); pair D = (4,0); pair M = midpoint(A--C); label("$A$",A,NW);label("$B$",B,SW);label("$C$",C, SE);label("$M$",M,NE);label("$D$",D,SE); draw(A--B--C--cycle); draw(C--D--M--cycle);[/asy]](/static/aops/6aa004b06a2897918f89be366ce3af200115d58f.png)
