Three
Yorkshire neighbouring estates were to be offered for sale.
Each estate
was square in shape, and they joined one another at their corners, just
as shown in the diagram.
Estate A contains exactly 370 acres, B
contains 116 acres, and C 74 acres.
Now, the little
triangular bit of land enclosed by
the three square estates was not offered for sale, and, for no reason
in particular, I became curious as to the area of that piece.
How many
acres did it contain?
