Hi! Can someone help me understand why the answer to this question is D and not C?
Since they have given us the angle values in the figure, we can split this figure into a square and a rectangle, assume square length as 10, thereafter assume the width of the rectangle as 10ft (20ft -10ft) and prove that their cumulative area (Quantity A) is equal to the Quantity B.

Posted this way the question is almost incomprehensible
Solution
the area of the floor cannot be determined because the height of the blank space is not given and only the total height is give i.e. = 20 ft.
Hence the option is D
I hope this helps
