Doing this, we get that 
Now, we can solve this by factoring. By using RRT, we get that

so our values of 
Summing these gives our answer of

Furthermore, note that 
Thus, the answer is just 
so 
Cross multiplying and solving this quadratic, we get that our solution is 
Thus, 
We know from 
that 
so substituting this gives us 
Now, plugging this in to

gives us 
Solving these equations gives us 
Thus, by Vieta's, the sum of the roots is 
thus by median properties (the 2:1 ratio split thingy), we know that 
(For reference, I missed this part in-contest) Now, we can calculate 
by the Pythagorean Theorem to be 
and thus 
Now, by Pythagorean theorem, we know that the altitude from 
so our area is just 
Thus, simplifying and substituting 
we get that 
Simple guess and check gives us

giving us

we get that

Now return to the problem statement; 
but each inner function will just become 
hence the answer is 
Thus, simplifying, we get that

Plugging this in to the first equation, we get that 
so this means that

Plugging in numbers gives us
