I have an area that is 77ft in length at the top, 83ft at the base. One side is 46ft and the other side is 20ft. What will be the square feet for this area?

Thanks,

Mark

 


Hi Mark.

We sometimes get questions like yours which don't have quite enough information to solve the problem. Take a look at this earlier question to see why the four lengths aren't enough to figure out the area.

If you can take another measurement (like one of the diagonals), then solving the area is pretty straightforward.
