The image depicts a triangle where:

- The base of the triangle is \( 19 \, \text{yd} \),
- The height (perpendicular from the base to the opposite vertex) is \( 7 \, \text{yd} \).

The formula to find the area \( A \) of a triangle is:

\[
A = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height}
\]

Substituting the given values:

\[
A = \frac{1}{2} \times 19 \, \text{yd} \times 7 \, \text{yd}
\]
\[
A = \frac{1}{2} \times 133 \, \text{yd}^2 = 66.5 \, \text{yd}^2
\]

Thus, the area of the triangle is **66.5 square yards**.
