Problem Statement

Consider the areas of the four triangles obtained by drawing the diagonals ACAC and BDBD of a trapezium ABCDABCD. The product of these areas, taken two at time, are computed. If among the six products so obtained, two products are 1296 and 576, determine the square root of the maximum possible area of the trapezium to the nearest integer.
