Question Image

Given that , AC=2 units , BC=1 unit

In ΔABC,B=90°

AC2=AB2+BC2AB=3 units and

We know that,

ar(ΔABC)=12×AB×BC =12×CA×BD

12×3×1=12×2×BD

BD=32 units.

In ΔBCD,CD2=BC2BD2CD=12

In ΔABD,AD2=AB2BD2AD=32

ar[ΔBCD]=12×BC×FD=12×CD×BD

1×FD=12×32=34

perpendicular ar[ΔABD]=12×AB×DE=12×BD×DA

3×DE=32×32DE=34

ar(DEBF)=DF×DE=34×34=3316 sq. units
