Problem Statement

Trapezoid ABCDABCD has properties ABCDAB \parallel CD, AB=15AB = 15, CD=27CD = 27, and BC=AD=10BC = AD = 10. A smaller trapezoid EFGHEF GH is drawn withinABCD ABCD with ABEFAB\parallel EF, BCFGBC\parallel F G, CDGHCD\parallel GH, and DAHEDA\parallel HE such that each edge in ABCDABCD is a distance 22 away from the corresponding edge in EFGHEF GH. Compute the area of EFGHEF GH.
