The area of right triangle ACE = 1/2*AB*CE
1) AE equals 16 inches.
We do not know the length of CE. Insufficient.
2) BD equals 12 inches.
We do not know the length of AE and CE. Insufficient
(1) and (2) combined together
We still do not know the length of CE. Insufficient.
The correct answer: E
Hope this helps!
