A triangular colony area is divided into four fields of varying size as shown in the figure below shows. The only other thing we know is that the distances $AF$, $FD$, $BF$ and $FE$ have the lengths $5$, $2$, $4$ and $2$ respectively (in $10$s of m). When the lots are distributed, Joar gets to choose first. Which lot should he choose to get the one with the largest area?
