Solution

The correct option is D

24 cm2


\(\text{Let D be the centre of circumcircle.}\\


\therefore BD=5~cm\\
\text{In}~\Delta ABC,\\
AC^2=AB^2+BC^2\\
{\Rightarrow}100=AB^2+36\\
{\Rightarrow}AB^2=64{\Rightarrow}AB=8\\
\therefore \text{Area of }~\Delta ABC=\frac{1}{2}\times AB\times BC\\
=\frac{1}{2}\times8\times6=24cm^2\)
