2006 CyMO-14.PNG

The rectangle $AB\Gamma \Delta$ is a small garden divided to the rectangle $AZE\Delta$ and to the square $ZB\Gamma E$, so that $AE=2\sqrt{5}m$ and the shaded area of the triangle $\Delta BE$ is $4m^2$. The area of the whole garden is

$\mathrm{(A)}\ 24\ \text{m}^2\qquad\mathrm{(B)}\ 20\ \text{m}^2\qquad\mathrm{(C)}\ 16\ \text{m}^2\qquad\mathrm{(D)}\ 32\ \text{m}^2\qquad\mathrm{(E)}\ 10\sqrt{5}\ \text{m}^2$
