解:过点$A$作$AH⊥ BC$于点$H。$
$\because AD// BC,$$∠ BCD=90°,$
$\therefore ∠ D=180°-∠ BCD=180°-90°=90°。$
$\because AH⊥ BC,$
$\therefore ∠ AHB=∠ AHC=90°,$
$\therefore ∠ D=∠ BCD=∠ AHC=90°,$
$\therefore$ 四边形$AHCD$是矩形,
$\therefore CH=AD=4\ \mathrm{dm},$
$\therefore BH=BC-CH=10-4=6(\mathrm{dm}),$
$\therefore BH=AH,$
$\therefore ∠ B=∠ BAH=45°。$
$\because$ 四边形$EFCG$是矩形,且点$F$在边$BC$上,
$\therefore ∠ EFC=90°,$
$\therefore ∠ EFB=90°,$
$\therefore ∠ B=∠ BEF=45°,$
$\therefore BF=EF=5\ \mathrm{dm},$
$\therefore CF=BC-BF=10-5=5(\mathrm{dm}),$
$\therefore$ 矩形桌面的面积为$EF· CF=5×5=25(\mathrm{dm}^2)。$
