In $\triangle PQR$, $PR=15$, $QR=20$, and $PQ=25$. Points $A$ and $B$ lie on $\overline{PQ}$, points $C$ and $D$ lie on $\overline{QR}$, and points $E$ and $F$ lie on $\overline{PR}$, with $PA=QB=QC=RD=RE=PF=5$. Find the area of hexagon $ABCDEF$.
We know the area of the hexagon $ABCDEF$ to be $\triangle PQR- \triangle PAF- \triangle BCQ- \triangle RED$. Since $PR^2+RQ^2=PQ^2$, we know that $\triangle PRQ$ is a right triangle. Thus the area of $\triangle PQR$ is $150$. Another way to compute the area is \[\frac12 \cdot PQ\cdot RQ \sin \angle PQR = \frac12 \cdot 500 \cdot \sin \angle PQR=150 \implies \sin \angle PQR = \frac35.\] Then the area of $\triangle BCQ = \frac12 \cdot BQ \cdot CQ \cdot \sin \angle PQR= \frac{25}{2}\cdot \frac{3}{5}=\frac{15}{2}$. Preceding in a similar fashion for $\triangle PAF$, the area of $\triangle PAF$ is $10$. Since $\angle ERD = 90^{\circ}$, the area of $\triangle RED=\frac{25}{2}$. Thus our desired answer is $150-\frac{15}{2}-10-\frac{25}{2}=\boxed{120}$
