Answer:

The area of DBE = 27 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of ABC = 3 square units

In the figure, we can see that ABC was enlarged so that BDE is formed where side BD = 6 and AB was = 2

Hence ABC was enlarged 3 times its size.

We know by formula that:

Area of ABC = 1/2(base x perpendicular)

3 = 1/2(2 x p)

=> p = 3

As ABC was enlarged 3 times its size, the perpendicular of BDE must be 3*p

= 3*3 = 9

AREA OF DBE = 1/2(base*perp)

= 1/2(6*9)

= 27 square units
