54 square feet
To find the area of the completed flag, we need to use the formula for the area of a triangle:
Area = 0.5 * base * height
From the scale drawing on the left, we can see that the base of the triangle is 6 feet and the height is 18 feet.
Area = 0.5 * 6 * 18
Area = 54 square feet
Therefore, the area of the completed flag in square feet is 54.
