Let ABC be a triangle plotted on the Cartesian plane, with C as the vertex of the right angle. It is given that the hypotenuse measures 60 units in length and the medians for A and B are, respectively, on the lines y = x + 3 and y = 2x + 4. Find, in area units, the area value of the triangle ABC.

Sorry for my English, I'm Spanish. I made the intersection of the two lines and find the barycenter. Then I adopted values for points A, B and C, but then I crashed because I saw that there would be many unknown letters. I was wondering if there is a quick way to solve it.
