$$\left(\mathrm{2}+{a}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} +\left(\mathrm{2}+\mathrm{2}+{a}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} =\left({a}+\mathrm{2}+{a}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$${a}^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{2}{a}−\mathrm{8}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\left({a}−\mathrm{4}\right)\left({a}+\mathrm{2}\right)=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{a}=\mathrm{4} \\ $$$$\left[{ABC}\right]=\frac{\mathrm{6}×\mathrm{8}}{\mathrm{2}}=\mathrm{24}\:\checkmark \\ $$
