A Quadrilateral with Balanced Areas

Problem

Convex quadrilateral ABCDABCD has side lengths AB=CD=10AB = CD = 10, BC=14BC = 14, and AD=265AD = 2\sqrt{65}. Its diagonals intersect at point PP, and the sum of the areas of triangles APBAPB and CPDCPD equals the sum of the areas of triangles BPCBPC and APDAPD. Find the area of quadrilateral ABCDABCD.
