| − | Points <math>X</math> and <math>Y</math> lie on sides <math>\overline{BC}</math> and <math>\overline{CD}</math>, respectively, of parallelogram <math>ABCD</math> such that <math>\angle AXC = \angle AYC = 90^{\circ}</math>. Suppose <math>BX = 5</math> and <math>DY = 3</math>, as shown. If <math>ABCD</math> has perimeter <math>48</math>, what is its area?

| − | Note that opposite angles in a parallelogram are equal, so <math>\angle ADY = \angle ABX</math>. Also, <math>\angle AYD = \angle AXB = 90^{\circ}</math>, so <math>\triangle AYD \sim \triangle AXB</math>. The ratio of similarity of these triangles is <math>\tfrac{AB}{AD} = \tfrac{BX}{DY} = \tfrac{5}{3}</math>, so let <math>AB = 5x</math> and <math>AD = 3x</math>. The perimeter of <math>ABCD</math> is <math>5x + 3x + 5x + 3x = 16x = 48</math>, so <math>x = 3</math>. Therefore <math>AD = 3 \cdot 3 = 9</math>, <math>AB = 5 \cdot 3 = 15</math>, and the area of <math>ABCD</math> is <math>AY \cdot AB = \sqrt{9^{2} - 3^{2}} \cdot 15 = \sqrt{72} \cdot 15 = 6\sqrt{2} \cdot 15 = \boxed{\textbf{(D)}~90\sqrt{2}}</math>.
