Cows Alpha and Beta are tied by eight-meter ropes, on the midpoints of adjacent sides of a rectangular fence. Both cows are outside the fence; Alpha can wander in a region with an area of 34π34\pi square meters and Beta can wander in a region with an area of 40π40\pi square meters. What is the area enclosed by the rectangular fence?

Jenn draws a scalene triangle, and measures the heights from each of the vertices to its opposite side. She discovers that the three height lengths are all roots of the polynomial x33.9x2+4.4x1.2.x^3 - 3.9 x^2 + 4.4 x - 1.2. What is the length of the inradius of the triangle?
