Problem Statement

Let SS be a square of side length 11, one of whose vertices is AA. Let S+S^+ be the square obtained by rotating S clockwise about AA by 30o30^o . Let SS^- be the square obtained by rotating S counterclockwise about AA by 30o30^o. Compute the total area that is covered by exactly two of the squares SS, S+S^+, SS^-. Express your answer in the form a+b3a + b\sqrt3 where a,ba, b are rational numbers.
