The formula for the area of a triangle is given by:
Area = 1/2 * base * height
In this case, the base is 13 yards and the height is 5 yards. Plugging these values into the formula gives:
Area = 1/2 * 13 yards * 5 yards
= 6.5 yards * 5 yards
= 32.5 square yards
Therefore, the correct answer is 32.5 square yards.
