  • Paper

Let ABCABC be an equilateral triangle. Extend side AB‾\overline{AB} beyond BB to a point B′B' so that BB′=3⋅ABBB'=3 \cdot AB. Similarly, extend side BC‾\overline{BC} beyond CC to a point C′C' so that CC′=3⋅BCCC'=3 \cdot BC, and extend side CA‾\overline{CA} beyond AA to a point A′A' so that AA′=3⋅CAAA'=3 \cdot CA. What is the ratio of the area of △A′B′C′\triangle A'B'C' to the area of △ABC\triangle ABC?
