Solution/Answer

If AB=x and CD=y, we have BC=x+y.

By the Pythagorean theorem, we have (x+y)^2=(y-x)^2+49

Solving the equation, we get 4xy=49 implies xy = oxed{	extbf{(B)} 12.25}.

Solution/Answer

Draw height CH. We have that BH=1. From the Pythagorean Theorem, CH=sqrt{48}. Since CD=8, HD=sqrt{8^2-48}=sqrt{16}=4, and BD=HD-1, so BD=3
