The are of the triangle will be 12.5 units.

On marking the given vertices (0,0), (0,5), (5,5) of the triangle we get, the base of the triangle = 5 units and height of the triangle = 5 units.

Now, we know area of triangle =
(Base * Height)/(2) \\ \\ = (5 *5)/(2) \\ \\ = (25)/(2) \\ \\ = 12.5 units.
