Let $M$, $N$, $L$ be midpoints of $AB$, $BC$, $AD$. If $CL\parallel AB$ and $NQ\parallel ML$, find the area of $ABCD$. Let $M$, $N$, and $L$ be the midpoints of $AB$, $BC$ and $AD$, respectively.  Suppose that $CL\parallel AB$.  A point $Q$ on $CL$ is such that $NQ\parallel ML$.    Calculate the area of ​the quadrangular region $ABCD$ as a function of areas $\Bbb A$, $\Bbb B$, $\Bbb C$.


I tried in so many ways but I couldn' isolate this area in terms of $\Bbb A$, $\Bbb B$, and $\Bbb C$, because I coudn't list the area [CLD] with the areas $\Bbb A$, $\Bbb B$, and $\Bbb  C$.
The answer is
$$[ABCD]=8(\Bbb A+\Bbb B-\Bbb C).$$
I tried to draw AN and divide the areas A and B in $A_1,A_2,B_1,B_2$, and I got the equations:
$$A_2+B_1+H=D,$$
$$A_1+B_2+F=C+G+E.$$
How can I do this?
Let $P=ML\cap AN$, $E=CL\cap DB$, $F=AN\cap BD$, and $R=AE\cap PL$.  Because $AB\parallel CL$ and $L$ biescts $AD$, $E$ is the midpoint of $BC$.  Since $M$ is a midpoint of $AB$, $ME\parallel AD$.  Therefore, $\square ALEM$ is a parallelogram.  Therefore, the diagonals $AE$ and $ML$ bisect each others.  Hence, $R$ is a midpoint of $AE$.  As $N$ is a midpoint of $BC$ and $AB\parallel CL$, we see that $NR\parallel AB$.  Therefore,
$$[MNA]=[MRA].$$
This shows that
$$\Bbb C=[MPN]=[MNA]-[MPA]=[MRA]-[MPA]=[APR].$$

We then have
$$[ARL]=[APL]-[APR]=\Bbb A-\Bbb C.$$
Note that $\triangle ARL\sim\triangle AED$ because $BD\parallel ML$ ($M$ and $L$ are midpoints of $AB$ and $AD$).  Therefore,
$$\frac{[ARL]}{[AED]}=\left(\frac{AL}{AD}\right)^2=\frac14.$$
Since $ED=EB$, we get
$$[AEB]=[AED].$$
So
$$[ABD]=[AEB]+[AED]=2[AED]=2\cdot 4[ARL]=8(\Bbb A-\Bbb C).$$

Note that $\triangle CNQ\sim \triangle CBE$ because $BD\parallel ML$ and $ML\parallel NQ$, so
$$\frac{[CNQ]}{[CBE]}=\left(\frac{CN}{CB}\right)^2=\frac14.$$
Since $L$ bisects $AD$ and $CL\parallel AB$, $E$ also bisects $BD$.  Therefore
$$[CBE]=[CED].$$
Hence
$$[BCD]=[CBE]+[CED]=2[CBE]=2\cdot 4[CNQ]=8\Bbb B.$$
That is,
$$[ABCD]=[ABD]+[BCD]=8(\Bbb A-\Bbb C)+8\Bbb B=8(\Bbb A+\Bbb B-\Bbb C).$$



If all else fails, you can use assign coordinates to the problem.  WLOG, let $A=(0,0)$, $L=(2,0)$, $D=(4,0)$, $M=(0,1)$, and $B(0,2)$.  We can do this because area ratios are preserved under affine transformations.

If $C=(2,2c)$, then $N=(1,c+1)$.  Since $NQ\parallel ML$, $NQ$ is given by the linear equation
$$y-c-1=-\frac{1}{2}(x-1).$$
So $Q=\left(2,c+\frac12\right)$.  The line $ML$ is 
$$y=-\frac{1}{2}(x-2)$$
and the line $AN$ is
$$y=(c+1)x.$$
If $P=AN\cap ML$, then
$$P=\left(\frac{2}{2c+3},\frac{2c+2}{2c+3}\right).$$

We have
$$[APL]=\frac{1}{2}\cdot\frac{2c+2}{2c+3}\cdot 2=\frac{2c+2}{2c+3},$$
$$[CNQ]=\frac{1}{2}\cdot 1\cdot\left(2c-c-\frac12\right)=\frac{2c-1}{4},$$
and
$$[MPN]=\frac12\left|\begin{array}{ccc}
1&amp;0&amp;1\\
1&amp;\frac{2}{2c+3}&amp;\frac{2c+2}{2c+3}\\
1&amp;1&amp;c+1
\end{array}\right|=\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{2c+1}{2c+3}\right).$$
This means $2[APL]-2[MPN]=1$ and $c=2[CNQ]+\frac12$.
However,
$$[ABCD]=\frac{1}{2}\cdot 2\cdot (2+2c)+\frac12\cdot 2\cdot 2c=2+2c+2c=4c+2.$$
That is
$$[ABCD]=4\left(2[CNQ]+\frac12\right)+2=8[CNQ]+4=8[CNQ]+4\big(2[APL]-2[MPN]\big).$$
Hence
$$[ABCD]=8[APL]+8[CNQ]-8[MPN]=8\Bbb A+8\Bbb B-8\Bbb C.$$
Angles $BAD$ and $ABC$ are arbitraries so if the required relation is non constant then the problem is not determined. Consequently in order to verify the relation $[ABCD]=8(\Bbb A+\Bbb B-\Bbb C)$ we choose a convenient quadrilateral for easy calculation.

Let the trapezoid $ABCD$ where $A=(0,0),\space B=(0,2a)\space C=(a,2a)\space D=((2a,0)$ We have $M=(0,a),\space L=(a,0)\space N=(\dfrac a2,2a)$ and $CL\parallel AB$.

$AN$ and $ML$ determine a point of intersection $R=(\dfrac a5,\dfrac{4a}{5})$ and the point $Q=(a,\dfrac {3a}{2})$ is given by intersection of $CL$ and $NQ$.

With this triangles $NQC$ and $ARL$ clearly have an area of $\dfrac{a^2}{8}$ and $\dfrac{2a^2}{5}$ respectively and usually calculation gives the other shadow triangle $MNR$ has an area equal to $\dfrac{3a^2}{20}$.

Now $$8( \dfrac{2a^2}{5}+\dfrac{a^2}{8}-\dfrac{3a^2}{20})=\dfrac{8\cdot15a^2}{40}=3a^2$$

This $3a^2$ is precisely the area of the trapezoid.
