From the given, ∠DAB is a right angle triangle.
Using Pythagoras theorem,
 DB2 = DA2 + AB2  DB2 = 92 + 402
Taking square root on both sides we get,
DB=81+1600 Hence,
DB = 41 unit
Let us consider the △DAB,
We have s=9+40+412
s=902 Hence,
s = 45 units
Since, area of DAB = A1= s (- a) (- b) (- c)
Let substitute the values,
45(45-9)(45-40)(45-41) 
⇒45×36×5×4
⇒180 sq. unit
Let us consider the △DCB,
We have, s=28+15+412
s=842 
Hence,
⇒ s= 42 units
Area of DCB = A2=(- a) (- b) (- c) 42×(42-38)×(42-15)×(42-41) sq. units 42×14×27×1⇒126sq. units
Hence, area of quadrilateral = A1 + A2
⇒(180+126)
Hence, area of quadrilateral =306 sq. units.
So, option 3 is correct.
