This data sufficiency problem consists of a question and two statements, labeled (1) and (2), in which certain data are given.

Using the data given in the statements, plus your knowledge of mathematics and everyday facts (such as the number of days in a leap year or the meaning of the word counterclockwise), you must indicate whether -
Numbers
All numbers used are real numbers.
Figures
A figure accompanying a data sufficiency question will conform to the information given in the question but will not necessarily conform to the additional information given in statements (1) and (2).
Lines shown as straight can be assumed to be straight and lines that appear jagged can also be assumed to be straight. You may assume that the positions of points, angles, regions, etc. exist in the order shown and that angle measures are greater than zero. All figures lie in a plane unless otherwise indicated. Note: In data sufficiency problems that ask for the value of a quantity, the data given in the statement are sufficient only when it is possible to determine exactly one numerical value for the quantity. Question
Triangle ABC is right angled at B. BD, the median to hypotenuse AC, is 5 units. What is the area of the triangle?
