@Paramount if CD is perpendicular on AB then it is also a point on AB . now take the sides 6,8,10 . we get CD=4.8 ,ad=3.6 and DB=6.4 and on putting values in above formula the results are not equating

This formula is applied when CD is perpendicular to AB. But in this question D is any point on AB. And the correct formula for such type of questions is given.
