The formula for the area of a triangle is A = 1/2 * base * height.
In this case, the base is 13 yards and the height is 5 yards.
Using the formula, we can calculate the area:
A = 1/2 * 13 yards * 5 yards
A = 1/2 * 65 square yards
A = 32.5 square yards
Therefore, the area of the triangle is 32.5 square yards.
