Understanding Area Calculations in Square Meters

Learn how to calculate area and estimate costs in square meters for different spaces.

Area Formulas

Rectangle:

A=l×w

Square:

A=s2

Circle:

A=πr2

Triangle:

A=12×b×h

Where:

  • A = Area in square meters
  • l = Length in meters
  • w = Width in meters
  • s = Side length in meters
  • r = Radius in meters
  • b = Base in meters
  • h = Height in meters

Calculation Steps

  1. Measure the dimensions in meters
  2. Select the appropriate shape formula
  3. Substitute the measurements into the formula
  4. Calculate the area in square meters
  5. If needed, multiply area by cost per m² for total cost

Example Calculation

Problem:

Calculate the area and cost of a rectangular room:

  • Length = 6 meters
  • Width = 4 meters
  • Cost per m² = $25

Solution:

  1. Calculate area using rectangle formula: A=l×w
  2. Substitute values: A=6 meters×4 meters=24 square meters
  3. Calculate total cost: Total Cost=24 m²×$25=$600
