Triangle
Area = ½ × b × h
b = base
h = vertical height
|
|
 |
Square
Area = a2
a = length of side
|
 |
Rectangle
Area = w × h
w = width
h = height
|
|
 |
Parallelogram
Area = b × h
b = base
h = vertical height
|
 |
Trapezoid (US)
Trapezium (UK)
Area = ½(a+b) × h
h = vertical height
|
|
 |
Circle
Area = π × r2
Circumference = 2 × π × r
r = radius
|
 |
Ellipse
Area = πab
|
|
 |
Sector
Area = ½ × r2 × θ
r = radius
θ = angle in radians
|
Note: h is at right angles to b:

Example: What is the area of this rectangle?

The formula is:
Area = w × h
w = width
h = height
We know w = 5 and h = 3, so:
Area = 5 × 3 = 15
Example: What is the area of this circle?

Radius = r = 3
Area
|
|
= π × r2
|
|
|
= π × 32
|
|
|
= π × (3 × 3)
|
|
|
= 3.14159... × 9

= 28.27 (to 2 decimal places)

Example: What is the area of this triangle?

Height = h = 12
Base = b = 20
Area = ½ × b × h = ½ × 20 × 12 = 120
A harder example:
Example: Sam cuts grass at $0.10 per square meter
How much does Sam earn cutting this area:

Let's break the area into two parts:

Part A is a square:
Area of A = a2 = 20m × 20m = 400m2
Part B is a triangle. Viewed sideways it has a base of 20m and a height of 14m.
Area of B = ½b × h = ½ × 20m × 14m = 140m2
So the total area is:
Area = Area of A + Area of B = 400m2 + 140m2 = 540m2
Sam earns $0.10 per square meter
Sam earns = $0.10 × 540m2 = $54
