In
△ADB, using Pythagoras theorem,
AD2+BD2=AB2
152+BD2=252 ⇒BD=√625−225=√400
BD=20
ar△ADB =12∗AD∗BD
⇒12∗AB∗DE=12∗AD∗BD
⇒25∗DE=15∗20
DE=30025=12
∴ In △AED , using Pythagoras theorem
AE2+ED2=AD2
AE=√152−122=√225−144=√81=9
Similarly in △BFC,
BF=9
∴ EF=CD=AB−2∗AE=25−(2∗9)=7
Hence, ar(ABCD)=12∗(AB+CD)∗DE
=12∗(25+7)∗12
=192 sq. units
