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 = (1/2) * base * height

Substituting the given values, we have:

Area = (1/2) * 13 yards * 5 yards

Area = 6.5 yards * 5 yards

Area = 32.5 square yards

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