The area of the triangle is 2.5 square yards.

The formula for finding the area of a triangle is given by:

Area = 0.5 × base × height

Given that the base (a) is 1 yard and the height (c) is 5 yards, we can substitute these values into the formula:

Area = 0.5 × 1 yard × 5 yards = 2.5 square yards

Therefore, the answer is 2.5 square yards (option d).
