The correct answer is: 529

Given,

The equations of two adjacent sides of a parallelogram ABCD be 2x-3y=-23 and 5x+4y=23,

So, AB2x-3y=-23 and BC5x+4y=23

Also given, AC3x+7y=23

Solving the above lines we get, A(4, 5), B(1, 7), C(3, 2)

We know that,

Diagonal of parallelogram have same midpoint,

So AC and BD have same mid-point and let point D be x,y,

So midpoint formula we get, 

x-12=-4+32x=0 and y+72=2+52y=0

Hence, point D is (0, 0)

Now Equation of BD will be 7x+y=0

Now finding the distance of A-4,5 from 7x+y=0 we get,

d=7(-4)+572+12=2350

Hence, 50d2=232=529
