    Assume they are right triangles, find the other side of the smaller triangle

    2 (57/8) = 14.25 sq/ft: (.5*14.25*8=57).

    Find the other side of the larger triangle, using corresponding sides in

    similar triangles

    *14.25 = 24.9375

    Find the area of the larger triangle

    .5*14*24.9375 = 174.5625 sq/ft area of the larger triangle.
