Answer:
The area of the triangular case = 61.2 square inches

Given - Mr. Sanders wants to display his American flag in a triangular case as shown below.
To find - What is the area of the triangular case ?

Base of triangle = 14 2/5 in
Height of triangle = 8.5 in
We know that,
Area of triangle =1/2 *base *height =1/2 *8.5 *14 2/5
=1/2 * 8.5 * 14.4
=1/2 * 122.4
=61.2

we get
The area of the triangular case = 61.2 square inches
