Use the formula for the area of a triangle to determine the area of a triangle with base equal to 13 yards and height equal to 5 yards.
A. 18 square yards
B. 27.5 square yards
C. 32.5 square yards
D. 65 square yards
The formula for the area of a triangle is 1/2 * base * height. Plugging in the values given:
Area = 1/2 * 13 yards * 5 yards
Area = 1/2 * 65 square yards
Area = 32.5 square yards
Therefore, the correct answer is C. 32.5 square yards.
