problem

In equilateral triangle ABCA B C, a circle \omega is drawn such that it is tangent to all three sides of the triangle. A line is drawn from AA to point DD on segment BCB C such that ADA D intersects \omega at points EE and FF. If EF=4E F=4 and AB=8A B=8, determine |AE−FD||A E-F D|.

Original LaTeX notation
In equilateral triangle $A B C$, a circle \omega is drawn such that it is tangent to all three sides of the triangle. A line is drawn from $A$ to point $D$ on segment $B C$ such that $A D$ intersects \omega at points $E$ and $F$. If $E F=4$ and $A B=8$, determine $|A E-F D|$.
