A triangle is given. Its side a is of length $20$ cm, and its area is $125$ cm$^2$. It is also known that one of the angles lying on side a is twice as large as the other one. We cut the triangle into two parts at the median belonging to side a. Then we move the so-obtained two parts towards each other, such that the two segments of side a remain on the same line (i.e., the line initially occupied by side a). We move the two parts towards each other until we first reach a moment when the common part of the two segments is of length $4$ cm. What is the area of the so-obtained shape in cm$^2$? The so-obtained shape is the union of the two parts, which is a heptagon.
