The answer is: 117m²

The explanation is shown below:

1. You have the following information given in the problem:

- The triangle has an area of 13 m².

- The dimensions of the triangle are increased by a scale factor of 3.

2. Therefore, to solve the exercise you must multiply the area by $3^{2}=9$ , as following:

$A=(13m^{2})(9)\\A=117m^{2}$
