Since the figure is a triangle, we must use the triangle area formula to solve the problem, which is [tex]A = \frac{1}{2} b h[/tex]. By using this formula, we can plug in the numbers shown. Then, we can multiply.
[tex]A = \frac{1}{2} * 5 *22[/tex]
[tex]A = \frac{1}{2} * 110[/tex]
[tex]A = 55^2[/tex]
The area of the triangle is 55 yards squared.
