1989 AIME Problem 15
Point P^{}_{} is inside \triangle ABC^{}_{}. Line segments APD^{}_{}, BPE^{}_{}, and CPF^{}_{} are drawn with D^{}_{} on BC^{}_{}, E^{}_{} on AC^{}_{}, and F{}{}^{}_{} on AB^{}_{} (see the figure at right). Given that AP=6^{}_{}, BP=9^{}_{}, PD=6^{}_{}, PE=3^{}_{}, and CF=20^{}_{}, find the area of \triangle ABC^{}_{}.
Leading zeroes must be inputted, so if your answer is 34, then input 034
