In a city of square blocks, the "street distance" between (a,b)(a,b) and (c,d)(c,d) is ∣a−c∣+∣b−d∣|a-c|+|b-d| (you can only travel along horizontal and vertical streets). Find the area of the region of all points PP whose street distance to (0,0)(0,0) plus its street distance to (6,0)(6,0) is at most 1010.
