Hunter Sails H26 square footage needed

[abk]

I am a new owner of a 1996 Hunter H26... Since math is not my strongest point I was wondering if someone out there would know the square footage of the standard Mainsail and Jib that come with the boat?

Thanks in advance and I appreciate the help...

Bruce, do you know the measurements of the sails? If you do, remember that a triangle is simply one half the size of a rectangle and the area of a rectangle is one side times the other side in square feet.

The main is 290.1 sqft and the Jib is 132.2 sqft. for the standard factory configuration.
