A triangular sail, commonly known as a lateen sail, is a type of sail that is triangular in shape, typically mounted on a single mast at an angle. This design allows for efficient sailing at various angles to the wind, making it particularly effective for maneuvering and tacking. Triangular sails have been historically used in small to medium-sized vessels, especially in the Mediterranean and on traditional dhows. Their shape helps in harnessing the wind more effectively, providing better speed and control.

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'.
