  • C 2000 m2 ✔ ✖
  • D 2200 m2 ✔ ✖
Correct Answer

Explanation

 
Let the sides are 10x, 24x, and 26x.
The perimeter is 300 m.
So, 10x + 24x + 26x = 300
60x = 300
x= 5

So, the sides are 10 *5 = 50 meters
24 * 5 = 100 meters
26 * 5 = 130 meters
102 + 242 = 262 so, it is a right triangle.
       100 + 576 = 676

The area of a right triangle is = 1/2 * base * height
              = 1/2 * 50 * 100
              = 2500 m2
