detailed solution

Correct option is A

ΔADB is congruent to ΔDBC as the diagonal of a parallelogram divides it into two congruent triangles.

Now in right-angled triangle DBC:

∴ (BC)² + (BD)² = (DC)²   ..... (Pythagoras theorem)

∴ (BC)² + 16 = 25

∴ (BC)² = 25 - 16 = 9

∴ BC = 3 m

Now, Area of ΔDBC = $\frac{1}{2}$ ​× DB × BC

                                   = $\frac{1}{2}$ ​× 4 × 3 = 6 m²

Since congruent triangles have equal areas 

So, the area of ΔADB is also 6 m²

∴ Area of parallelogram ABCD = Area of ΔDBC + Area of ΔADB

                                                      = 6 + 6 = 12 m²
