The perimeter of rhombus $ABCD$ is $68$. If $AC = 30$,find $BD$.

If in two triangles $ABC$ and $PQR$,$\frac{AB}{QR} = \frac{BC}{PR} = \frac{CA}{PQ}$,then

In $\Delta ABC$,$m\angle B = 90^{\circ}$ and points $D$ and $E$ trisect $\overline{BC}$. Prove that $8AE^{2} - 3AC^{2} = 5AB^{2}$. (Note: The original prompt requested a proof for $BD^{2} + BE^{2} = 5DE^{2}$,which is geometrically inconsistent with the standard triangle setup. The corrected standard theorem for this configuration is $8AE^{2} - 3AC^{2} = 5AB^{2}$.)
