| Since ВD, by condition, is the bisector of the angle, then it divides the sides of the AC into segments proportional to the adjacent sides.
AD / AВ = СD / ВС.
√5 / AB = СD / 2 * √5.
AB * СD = √5 * 2 * √5 = 10.
Segment AB is the height of the ВDС triangle to the base of the СD, then:
the area of the ВСD triangle is equal to: Svsd = СD * AB / 2 = 10/2 = 5 cm2.
Answer: The area of the ВСD triangle is 5 cm2.
