Answer: Let AX and BD meet at P . We have DP/P B = DX/AB = 3 / 4. Now, applying
Ceva’s Theorem in triangle ABD , we see that 2

Now,

[ ABCD ] 2[ ABD ] 2 3 11 22
and similarly

[ ABCD ] 2 4 11 88
The area of XY Z is the rest of the fraction of the area of ABCD not covered by the three abovepolygons, which by a straightforward calculation 19 / 88 the area of ABCD , so our answer is
