Problem

Let $\triangle ABC$ be a triangle such $AB = 13$, $BC = 14$, $CA = 15$. Let the incircle of $\triangle ABC$ touch $BC$ at $D$, $AC$ at $E$, and $AB$ at $F$. Let $\ell_A$ be the line through the midpoints of $AE$ and $EF$. Define $\ell_B$ and $\ell_C$ similarily. Let the area of the star created by the union of $\triangle ABC$ and the triangle bound by $\ell_A$, $\ell_B$, and $\ell_C$ be $\frac{p}{q}$ for relatively prime $p$ and $q$. Find $p + q$.
