Math Challenge IV Fall Week 1 HW

I've spent way too long on Example 6, and have only completed the first part.

So I have: DE=DF implies AEDF is cyclic, and I am trying to prove angle EDF is acute for part b, but I have not found a helpful angle chase. Is this approach correct, and if so, what should I be looking for in my angle chase?

To prove an angle is greater than 90 degrees, you can use the Law of Cosines.  Also the equality in the first part can be applied.
