Let ABC be a triangle, and let its angle bisectors be AD, BE, and CF which intersect at I. If DI=3, BD=4 and BI=6 then compute the area of triangle BID.
Here is a solution that doesn't require any complex geometry. We see that we know all 3 side lengths of triangle BID. We know a formula that can tell us the area directly knowing 3 sides of the triangle, Heron's formula.
First we calculte the semi-perimeter 3+4+62=132.
Then we apply Heron's formula. Area=√132(132−3)(132−4)(132−6). Simplifying, we get Area=√45516=√4554
So, the Area is sqrt(455)/4 which is around 5.3327.
