OH i meant triangle OBD
hartnn (hartnn):
isn't BO perpendicular to AD ?
mathslover (mathslover):
NOTE : I have solution but the answer given by the soln is totally wrong acc. to me
I know that hartnn but... the soln does not go through that step
mathslover (mathslover):
it only goes find area of triangle AOB and then area of triangle ABC
and then subtraction as u know
mathslover (mathslover):
Is that right step?

hartnn (hartnn):
u mean Area of ABC-ABD ?
mathslover (mathslover):
ar of ABC - ar ABO
mathslover (mathslover):
that is mentioned by : the book
and i think where does BOD go ..
hartnn (hartnn):
thats not correct to find area ADC
it must be ABC-ABD=ABC-ABO-BOD
mathslover (mathslover):
yes very right ... but the book was 'reliable' so I thought it may contain some trick
so either figure is wrong or the soln
right?
