Area of a Square or Rectangle
LENGTH x WIDTH
Example:
a = 5 ft
b = 10 ft
5 x 10 = 50 sq ft
AREA OF A TRIANGLE
BASE x HEIGHT ÷ 2
Example:
a = 10 ft
b = 5 ft
(10 x 5)/2 = 25 sq ft
AREA OF A CIRCLE
PI x RADIUS SQUARED (πr²)
Example:
r = 10 ft
3.14 x 10² = 314 sq ft
Conversion Table
1 sq metre = 10.7639 sq ft
1 sq yd = 9 sq ft
