If the sail is a right triangle (that is, if the angle formed by the base of the sail and the part that runs up the mast is 90 degrees), then the area of the sail is 1/2 times the base times the height.
Assuming that a sail is a triangle shape, the area of a triangle can be found by using a simple formula. Half the base or bottom multiplied by the height of the triangle and its tallest point will give surface area.
