Answer
SELF-PRACTICE — the source book printed no answer.
Nothing is invented here, so this question has no answer on record.
Explanation
Given : Area of rectangle = Area of a right-angled triangle $\Rightarrow l \times b=\frac{1}{2} \times B \times H$ I. gives, $B=40 \mathrm{cm}$. II. gives, $H=50 \mathrm{cm}$. Thus, to find $l$, we need $b$ also, which is not given. $\therefore \quad$ Given data is not sufficient to give the answer. ∴ Correct answer is (d).
