The Equations

These Calculators use the following formulas to determine the field area.

Rectangular Field Area


Where:

= Area of the field (sq. ft)

= Length of the field (ft)

= Width of the field (ft)

 

Triangular Field Area


Where:

= Area of the field (sq. ft)

= Length of the Base of the field (ft)

= Distance from the base to the top of the field at a 90° from the base (ft)

 

Circular Field Area


Where:

= Area of the field (sq. ft)

= 3.14159

= Radius of the field (ft)

= Portion of the circle (as degrees, %, or a decimal)

 

Trapezoidal Field Area


Where:

= Area of the field (sq. ft)

= Length of one side of the field (ft)

= Length of the side Parallel to (ft)

= Width of the field, or distance between and (ft)
