How to use Area Calculator

Pick the shape, enter its dimensions, and the calculator will return the enclosed area in square units.

What this calculator is for

This calculator is for classroom geometry, flooring estimates, drawing plans, and any problem that asks how much flat surface a two-dimensional shape covers.

Tips

Area is always reported in square units, not plain units.
Use the perpendicular height for triangles and trapezoids, not a slanted side.
Be sure you choose the shape mode that matches the figure you are measuring.
