This specialized calculator assists users in computing the total area of a shape formed by the combination of several simple shapes. Whether you’re dealing with floor plans, landscaping projects, or complex machine parts, this tool ensures you get precise area measurements quickly and efficiently.
Formula of Area Of A Composite Figure Calculator
Understanding the basic formulas for the area of simple shapes is crucial when using the calculator:
Shape | Formula |
---|---|
Rectangle | Area = length × width |
Triangle | Area = (base × height) / 2 |
Circle | Area = π × radius² |
Square | Area = side × side |
These formulas are the building blocks used by the calculator to determine the area of more complex figures.
Table of Common Area Calculations
For convenience, here is a table of pre-calculated areas for common dimensions of simple shapes:
Shape | Dimensions | Area |
---|---|---|
Rectangle | 5m x 10m | 50 sq. m |
Triangle | Base 3m, Height 4m | 6 sq. m |
Circle | Radius 5m | 78.54 sq. m |
Square | Side 4m | 16 sq. m |
This table can be used to quickly estimate the areas without performing calculations manually.
Example of Area Of A Composite Figure Calculator
Consider a plot of land designed as a rectangle adjoined by a semicircle. If the rectangle measures 10m by 20m, and the radius of the semicircle is 5m, the area calculation would be as follows:
- Rectangle area = 10m × 20m = 200 sq. m
- Semicircle area = (π × 5² / 2) = 39.27 sq. m
- Total area = 200 sq. m + 39.27 sq. m = 239.27 sq. m
