解:
(1) 设$∠ BAC=α。$根据题意,得$\overset{\frown}{EF}$的长就是圆锥底面圆的周长,
$\therefore \frac{α}{180°} × π × AD = ED × π。$
又$\because AD=2ED,$
$\therefore α=90°,$即$∠ BAC=90°。$
(2) $\because$ 圆锥底面圆的直径$ED$为$5\ \mathrm{cm},$
$\therefore AD=2ED=10\ \mathrm{cm}。$
$\because ∠ BAC=90°,$$AB=AC,$
$\therefore △ ABC$是等腰直角三角形。
$\because AD⊥ BC,$
$\therefore$ 易得$BC=2AD=20\ \mathrm{cm},$
$\therefore S_{\mathrm{涂色}}=S_{△ ABC} - S_{\mathrm{扇形}AEF}$
$=\frac{1}{2} BC · AD - \frac{90π × AD^2}{360}$
$=\frac{1}{2} × 20 × 10 - \frac{90π × 10^2}{360}$
$=(100-25π)\ \mathrm{cm}^2$
