Answer:

99.4 yd²

Explanation:

The area (A) of a triangle is calculated using the formula

A =
(1)/(2) bh ( b is the base and h the perpendicular height )

here b = 28 and h = 7.1, hence

A = 0.5 × 28 × 7.1 = 99.4 yd²

Area of a triangle = (h × b) ÷ 2, where h is height and b is the base.

7.1 × 28 = 198.8

198.8 ÷ 2 = 99.4

The area of this triangle is 99.4 yd²
