33. Kavita along with her family was planning a vacation at a hill station. But, they were
confused about where to go. Kavita's mother asked her to find out the maximum
temperature of a few hill stations for deciding on the place to visit. She checked the
weather report on the Internet and found that

triangle using rope connecting B with another point C such that
BC= 12 m, connects C to the point D such that CD= 40 m and
finally connects D to A such that DA=30 m.Also angle ADC=90𝆩
