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

The formula for the area of a triangle is:

Area = (base * height) / 2

Given that the base is 13 yards and the height is 5 yards, we can substitute these values into the formula:

Area = (13 * 5) / 2
= 65 / 2
= 32.5

Therefore, the area of the triangle is 32.5 square yards.
