Answer:

The area of the wall is 435 square foot.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

One side of the wall (height) = 14 1/2 foot = 14.5 foot

The second side of the wall (length) = 30 foot

The area of the wall = height * length

= 14.5 * 30

= 435 square foot

b) The area of a wall is usually obtained by Height x Length. It uses the same standard formula of (Length) x (Width) for calculating the area of any surface, only that this time, the width changes to height because of the nature of the wall.
