Based on the above information, answer the question:

Area of △ABD\triangle ABD is

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 3

Triangle ABD is right-angled at D, with AD = 30330\sqrt{3} m and BD = 30 m. Area =12×AD×BD=12×303×30=4503 m2= \frac{1}{2} \times AD \times BD = \frac{1}{2} \times 30\sqrt{3} \times 30 = 450\sqrt{3}\, m^2.
