About Square Footage Calculator
The Square Footage Calculator helps you determine the area of a space in various units of measurement. This is useful for estimating materials needed for flooring, painting, landscaping, or any project that requires area measurements.
How to Calculate Square Footage
To calculate the area of different shapes:
- Rectangle: Multiply length by width (Area = Length × Width)
- Circle: Multiply π (3.1416) by the radius squared (Area = π × r²)
- Triangle: Multiply base by height and divide by 2 (Area = (Base × Height) / 2)
- Trapezoid: Add the two parallel sides, multiply by height, and divide by 2 (Area = (Base1 + Base2) × Height / 2)
Unit Conversions
The calculator automatically converts between different units of area:
- 1 square foot = 0.092903 square meters
- 1 square foot = 0.111111 square yards
- 1 square foot = 144 square inches
- 1 square foot = 929.0304 square centimeters
Practical Applications
Knowing the area of a space is essential for:
- Estimating flooring materials (tiles, hardwood, carpet)
- Calculating paint quantities for walls
- Determining lawn size for landscaping projects
- Planning room layouts and furniture placement
- Calculating property size for real estate purposes
