((AP)/(PC))=((AD)/(MC))=2  ⇒ΔADP=2×14=28  ((PM)/(DP))=((CM)/(AD))=(1/2)  ⇒ΔPMC=((14)/2)=7  14+28−7=35

$$\frac{{AP}}{{PC}}=\frac{{AD}}{{MC}}=\mathrm{2} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\Delta{ADP}=\mathrm{2}×\mathrm{14}=\mathrm{28} \\ $$$$\frac{{PM}}{{DP}}=\frac{{CM}}{{AD}}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\Delta{PMC}=\frac{\mathrm{14}}{\mathrm{2}}=\mathrm{7} \\ $$$$\mathrm{14}+\mathrm{28}−\mathrm{7}=\mathrm{35} \\ $$
