.
We now have all required side lengths; we can find the area of with Heron's formula. Doing so yields
. We could also bash out the areas of the other two triangles since we know all their side lengths (this is what I did :sob:), but a more intelligent method is to recall the triangles' similarity. The ratio of similarlity between
