A = 360 cm^2

Explanation:

Using Pythagorean theorem, the length AB is given by

AB^2 = 17^2 - 8^2 = 225 cm^2

or

AB = 15 cm

Since the ratio BC: CD = 1:2 and BC = 8 cm, this means that CD = 2×(8 cm) = 16 cm

so the length BD is

BD = BC + CD = 8cm + 16 cm = 24 cm

There the area of the rectangle is

A = AB×BD

= 15cm×24cm

= 360 cm^2
