WHAT IS THE AREA? SQUARE OR RECTANGLE Area = LW L = Length W = Width CIRCLE Area = Pi x R2 R= Radius CIRCLE (WITH 5% ACCURACY) Area = 0.8 D2 D = Diameter IRREGULAR SHAPES (WITH 5% ACCURACY) Measure the longest axis of the area. At every 10 feet on the length line, measure the width at right angles to the length line. Total all weights and multiply by 10. Area = (A1B2 + B1B2 + C1C2 etc.) x 10 OVALS OR EGG SHAPED (WITH 5% ACCURACY) Area = 0.8 LM L = Length W = Width at mid-point TRIANGLE Area = ½ B x H B = Base H = Height TRAPEZOID AREA Area = ½ (A + B) H A = One parallel side B = Second parallel side H = Height perpendicular to the two parallel side HOW MUCH DOES IT WEIGH? 1 pint of water weighs 1.04 pounds 1 gallon of water weighs 8.34 pounds.
