1999 AIME Problem 6

A transformation of the first quadrant of the coordinate plane maps each point (x,y) to the point (\sqrt{x},\sqrt{y}). The vertices of quadrilateral ABCD are A=(900,300), B=(1800,600), C=(600,1800), and D=(300,900). Let k_{} be the area of the region enclosed by the image of quadrilateral ABCD. Find the greatest integer that does not exceed k_{}.

Leading zeroes must be inputted, so if your answer is 34, then input 034
