Because your right triangle is half of a rectangle, you would multiply one measurement by the other and then divide that by two. Then multiply that by 15 per square meter. Unfortunately, this will UNDER estimate your cost, as the triangular sail's hypotenuse is NOT a straight line. But it'll get you 'in the ballpark'.
