Problem
Let ABCDEFG be a regular hexagon with side length 1. Denote X, Y, and Z the midpoints of sides (segment) AB, (segment) CD, and (segment) EF, respectively. What is the area of the convex hexagon whose interior is the intersection of the interiors of (insert) triangle symbol) ACE and (insert triangle symbol) XYZ?
Answer: 15sqrt(3)/32
