Area

Area is a measure of the amount of space inside a two-dimensional shape or surface, calculated as the size of the region bounded by its edges. Common formulae for calculating area include:

  • For a rectangle: Area = length × width

  • For a triangle: Area = (base × height) / 2

  • For a circle: Area = π × radius² where π (pi) is approximately 3.14.
    The unit of area is typically expressed in square units, such as square meters (m²), square centimeters (cm²), etc.
