Problem
and 
are two triangles in the same plane such that the lines 
are mutually parallel. Let ![$[ABC]$](http://latex.artofproblemsolving.com/d/3/3/d33cc80fa8f093e155c5be46d2e5d9da3d7e1ef5.png)
denote the area of triangle with an appropriate 
sign, etc.; prove that
![\[3([ABC]+ [A'B'C']) = [AB'C'] + [BC'A'] + [CA'B']+ [A'BC]+[B'CA] + [C'AB].\]](http://latex.artofproblemsolving.com/5/8/b/58b0b0c6ba5c2cb0d7264799fd86e5385a1e5919.png)
