Correct Answer: 150


Solution : Ratio of their sides = $\frac{\sqrt3}{\sqrt5}$
$\therefore$ Ratio of their areas = $(\frac{\sqrt3}{\sqrt5})^2 = \frac{3}{5}$
Given the area of $\triangle ABC$ = $90\text{ cm}^2$
$\therefore$ Area of $\triangle DEF=90\times \frac{5}{3} = 150\text{ cm}^2$
Hence, the correct answer is 150.
