Correct Answer: 684
Solution :
In $\triangle$DAB,
⇒ BD
2
= AD
2
+ AB
2
⇒ BD
2
= 24
2
+ 32
2
⇒ BD
2
= 1600
⇒ BD = 40 m
The area of triangle ABD = $\frac{1}{2}$ × 24 × 32 = 384 m
2
⇒ s = $\frac{25+25+40}{2}$ = 45 m
The area of triangle DBC = $\sqrt{45(45-20)(45-25)(45-40)}$ = 300 m
2
The area of figure BCD = 384 + 300 = 684 m
2
Hence, the correct answer is 684.
