Problem

Let $ABC$ be a triangle with $AB = 13$, $BC = 14$, and $AC = 15$. Let $D$ be the foot of the altitude from $A$ to $BC$ and $E$ be the point on $BC$ between $D$ and $C$ such that $BD = CE$. Extend $AE$ to meet the circumcircle of $ABC$ at $F$. If the area of triangle $FAC$ is $\frac{m}{n}$, where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers, find $m+n$.
