Tricky Triangle Problem

Geometry Level 3

In the diagram with coordinates as shown, A C = 51 AC = 51 and B C = 55 BC= 55 . The ratio of the area of P A B \triangle PAB to the area of P A C \triangle PAC to the area of P B C \triangle PBC is 1 : 2 : 3 1:2:3 . Determine the ordered pair that represents point P P . Express your answer as an ordered pair ( k , w ) (k,w) with each member of the ordered pair expressed as a common or improper fraction reduced to the lowest terms.

( 21 220 , 1 ) \left (\frac{21}{220},1\right) ( 63 13 , 110 13 ) \left(\frac{63}{13},\frac{110}{13} \right) ( 275 13 , 110 13 ) \left(\frac{275}{13},\frac{110}{13}\right) ( 739 78 , 110 13 ) \left(\frac{739}{78},\frac{110}{13}\right)
