27.5 square yards

18 square yards

65 square yards

32.5 square yards

To find the area of a triangle, we use the formula:

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 correct answer is 32.5 square yards.
