Area Calculator For Land App Download

The following are calculators to evaluate the area of seven common shapes. The area of more complex shapes can usually be obtained by breaking them down into their aggregating simple shapes, and totaling their areas. This calculator is especially useful for estimating land area.

Area is a quantity that describes the size or extent of a two-dimensional figure or shape in a plane. It can be visualized as the amount of paint that would be necessary to cover a surface, and is the two-dimensional counterpart of the one-dimensional length of a curve, and three-dimensional volume of a solid. The standard unit of area in the International System of Units (SI) is the square meter, or m2. Provided below are equations for some of the most common simple shapes, and examples of how the area of each is calculated.

A rectangle is a quadrilateral with four right angles. It is one of the simplest shapes, and calculating its area only requires that its length and width are known (or can be measured). A quadrilateral by definition is a polygon that has four edges and vertices. In the case of a rectangle, the length typically refers to the longer two edges of the quadrilateral, while the width refers to the shorter of the two edges. When the length and width of a rectangle are equal, the shape is a special case of a rectangle, called a square. The equation for calculating the area of a rectangle is as follows:

Imagine a farmer trying to sell a piece of land that happens to be perfectly rectangular. Because he owns some cows that he did not want frolicking freely, he fenced the piece of land and knew the exact length and width of each edge. The farmer also lives in the United States, and being unfamiliar with the use of SI units, still measures his plot of land in terms of feet. The foot was defined to be exactly 0.3048 meters in 1959 after having changed over an extensive period of time, as historically, the human body was often used to provide a basis for units of length, and unsurprisingly, was inconsistent based on time and location. Tangent aside, the farmer's plot of land has a length of 220 feet, and a width of 99 feet. Using this information:

The farmer's plot of land, which has an area of 21,780 square feet, equates to half an acre, where an acre is defined as the area of 1 chain by 1 furlong, which is defined by something else, and so on, and is why SI now exists. Unfortunately for the farmer, he lives in an area predominated by foreign investors with smaller feet, who felt that they should be getting more square feet for their money, and his land remains unsold today.

There are many equations for calculating the area of a triangle based on what information is available. As mentioned in the calculator above, please use the Triangle Calculator for further details and equations for calculating the area of a triangle, as well as determining the sides of a triangle using whatever information is available. Briefly, the equation used in the calculator provided above is known as Heron's formula (sometimes called Hero's formula), referring to the Hero of Alexandria, a Greek mathematician and engineer considered by some to be the greatest experimenter of ancient times. The formula is as follows:

At this point in time, through extreme effort and perseverance, the farmer has finally sold his 21,780 sq ft plot of land and has decided to use some of the money earned to build a pool for his family. Unfortunately for the farmer, he does not consider the fact that the maintenance costs of a pool for one year alone could likely pay for his children to visit any pool or water theme park for years to come. Even more unfortunately for the farmer, his 7-year-old daughter who has recently traveled to Egypt vicariously through Dora the Explorer, has fallen in love with triangles, and insists that the pool not only be triangular in shape, but also that the measurements must only include the number 7, to represent her age and immortalize this point of her life in the form of a triangular pool. Being a doting father, the farmer acquiesces to his daughter's request and proceeds to plan the construction of his triangular pool. The farmer must now determine whether he has sufficient area in his backyard to house a pool. While the farmer has begun to learn more about SI units, he is as yet uncomfortable with their use and decides that his only viable option is to construct a pool in the form of an equilateral triangle with sides 77 ft in length, since any other variation would either be too large or small. Given these dimensions, the farmer determines the necessary area as follows:

A trapezoid is a simple convex quadrilateral that has at least one pair of parallel sides. The property of being convex means that a trapezoid's angle does not exceed 180 (in contrast, a concave quadrilateral would), while being simple reflects that trapezoids are not self-intersecting, meaning two non-adjacent sides do not cross. In a trapezoid, the parallel sides are referred to as the bases of the trapezoid, and the other two sides are called the legs. There exist more distinctions and classifications for different types of trapezoids, but their areas are still calculated in the same manner using the following equation:

Another six years have passed, and his daughter has grown into a strong, beautiful, powerful, confident 15-year-old ingrate solely focused on seeking external validation from acquaintances and strangers on social media while wholeheartedly ignoring genuine support from immediate family and friends. Having had an argument with her father about her excessive use of social media, she decides to prey on her father's fear of the unknown, and belief in the supernatural in order to prank him. Not knowing where to start, she walks around town talking to a variety of strangers all of whom seemingly have endless founts of wisdom and advice, where she learns about crop circles and their association with aliens and unidentified flying objects as well as many other topics that ignore all scientific and logical explanations. Having finally been convinced of the spherical nature of the Earth, deleted all her past social media posts relating to B.o.B, and expanded her love of triangles to an acceptance of other shapes, she decides to make a basic crop circle consisting of a number of concentric circles, and wants to determine the area necessary to create a crop circle with an outer radius of 15 ft. She does so using the following equation:

The farmer and his family are facing their most significant dilemma to date. One year has passed, and the farmer's daughter is now 16 years old and as part of her birthday celebration, her mother baked her favorite dessert, blackberry pie. Unfortunately for the farmer's daughter, blackberry pie also happens to be a favorite food of their pet raccoon, Platypus, as evidenced by 180 worth of the pie being missing with telltale signs of the culprit in the form of crumbs leading towards the overindulgent raccoon. Initially, the pie would easily have been split between three people and one raccoon, but now, half the pie has to be divided between three people as a chagrined, but satiated Platypus watches from a distance. Given that each person will receive 60 worth of the pie with a radius of 16 inches, the area of pie that each person receives can be calculated as follows:

When F1 = F2, the resulting ellipse is a circle. The semi-major axis of an ellipse, as shown in the figure that is part of the calculator, is the longest radius of the ellipse, while the semi-minor axis is the shortest. The major and minor axes refer to the diameters rather than radii of the ellipse. The equation for calculating the area of an ellipse is similar to that for calculating the area of a circle, with the only difference being the use of two radii, rather than one (since the foci are in the same location for a circle):

Two years have passed since the mysterious disappearance of the family pet, Platypus, and the farmer's daughter's fortuitous winning of a furry accessory through the school lottery that helped fill the void of the loss of their beloved pet. The farmer's daughter is now 18 and is ready to escape rural Montana for a college life replete with freedom and debauchery, and of course some learning on the side. Unfortunately for the farmer's daughter, she grew up in an environment brimming with positive reinforcement, and subsequently, the mentality that one should "shoot for the moon [since] even if you miss, you'll land among the stars," as well as the assertion from everyone around her that she could do absolutely anything she put her mind to! As such, with her suboptimal grades, lack of any extracurricular activities due to her myriad different interests consuming all of her free time, zero planning, and her insistence on only applying to the very best of the best universities, the shock that resulted when she was not accepted to any of the top-tier universities she applied to could be reasonably compared to her metaphorically landing in deep space, inflating, freezing, and quickly suffocating when she missed the moon and landed among the stars. Along with her lungs, her dream of becoming an astrophysicist was summarily ruptured, at least for the time being, and she was relegated to calculating the elliptical area necessary in her room to build a human sized model of Earth's near elliptical orbit around the sun, so she could gaze longingly at the sun in the center of her room and its personification of her heart, burning with passion, but surrounded by the cold vastness of space, with the Earth's distant rotation mockingly representing the distance between her dreams, and solid ground.

A parallelogram is a simple quadrilateral which has two pairs of parallel sides, where the opposite sides and angles of the quadrilateral have equal lengths and angles. Rectangles, rhombuses, and squares are all special cases of parallelograms. Remember that the classification of a "simple" shape means that the shape is not self-intersecting. A parallelogram can be divided into a right triangle and a trapezoid, which can further be rearranged to form a rectangle, making the equation for calculating the area of a parallelogram essentially the same as that for calculating a rectangle. Instead of length and width however, a parallelogram uses base and height, where the height is the length of the perpendicular between a pair of bases. Based on the figure below, the equation for calculating the area of a parallelogram is as follows: 2351a5e196
