    I hope you can read this well. I misdrew the triangle, and I did rush a bit.

    Six's solution is correct and my solution is the same. I just made more steps to the answer, making sure that my (Dutch) students can understand the solution.

    here's an alternate solution taking advantage of the two kite-shaped quadrilaterals:
    - vertex A, sides a, h, h, a
    - vertex B, sides b, h, h, b
