Areas
Product of two Linear Dimensions (proportioned to the squares of similar sides). 144 square inches = 1 square foot. 9 66 feet = 1 “ yard.
Acre = 43,560 square feet = 4480 yards = (660 66 feet).
Square mile = 640 acres. or 1. Parallelogram (square, rectangular rhomboidal) = the product of the length of one side X by perpendicular height. 2. Triangle = product of base X by one-half the perpendicular height. 3. Triangle - Area from 3 sides given. From the half sum of the three sides subtract each side separately; multiply the half sum and the three remainders together, and the square root of the product will be the area. 4. Trapezoid = the sum of the two parallel sides X by half the perpendicular height. 5. Circle = the square of the diameter × 7854, or square of the circumference X 07958. 6. Sector of a Circle = radius of the circle X by one-half the arc of the sector. 7. Segment of a Circle. Find the area of a sector of a circle having the same arc, and deduct the triangle formed between the two radii and the chord of the arc. 8. Cube.
