Answer:

8.25 feet² → area of the sail

Step-by-step explanation:

Height (h) = 5 ½ = 11/2

Area of the sail / triangle

= ½ bh

= ½ × 3 × 11/2

= 33/4

= 8.25 feet²

given:

[tex]base = 3 \: ft[/tex]

[tex]heigh = 5 \frac{1}{2} \: ft[/tex]

to find:

the area of the triangle sail.

solution:

[tex]5 \frac{1}{2} = 5.5[/tex]

[tex]a = \frac{hb}{2} [/tex]

[tex]a = \frac{5.5 \times 3}{2} [/tex]

[tex]a = 8.25 \: {ft}^{2} [/tex]

hence, the area of the triangular sail is 8.25 square feets.
