28. In the rectangle \( A C E F \), given \( A F=B C=2 b, E F=2 a \), and \( D E=b \), find the area of \( \triangle B D F \) in terms of \( a \) and \( b \). (a) \( b^{2}+a b \) (b) \( b^{2}-a b \) (c) \( 3 b^{2}+2 a b \) (d) \( 3 b^{2}-2 a b \)

Step 1
First, let's determine if 28 is an even or odd number. We can do this by dividing 28 by 2. If the remainder is 0, then 28 is an even number. If the remainder is not 0, then 28 is an odd number. 28 divided by 2 equals 14 with no remainder, so 28 is an even number. Show more…

REVIEW. The total area of a rectangle is $25 a^{4}-16 b^{2} .$ Which factors could represent the length times width? $\mathbf{F}\left(5 a^{2}+4 b\right)\left(5 a^{2}+4 b\right)$ $\mathbf{G}\left(5 a^{2}+4 b\right)\left(5 a^{2}-4 b\right)$ $\mathbf{H}(5 a-4 b)(5 a-4 b)$ $\mathbf{J}(5 a+4 b)(5 a-4 b)$
