How to use Area Calculator

Pick a shape, type in its dimensions such as length, width or radius, and the area appears instantly along with the formula used.

Frequently asked questions

Which shapes can I calculate the area of?

Ten common shapes including square, rectangle, triangle, circle, parallelogram, trapezoid, rhombus, ellipse, sector and regular polygon — each with its own formula and inputs.

What formula is used for a circle?

Area = π × r², where r is the radius. Enter the radius and the calculator multiplies it by pi automatically.

What units does it use?

It is unit-agnostic — enter all measurements in the same unit (cm, m, in, ft) and the area is returned in that unit squared.
