How do you calculate the surface area of an oval shape 240metres by 140metres?

Where the question says "oval", we'll assume it's referring to an "ellipse".
(Our main reason for doing that is the fact that we know the formula for the area
of an ellipse, so the light is better over there.)
The area of an ellipse is: (pi) x (1/2 the long axis) x (1/2 the short axis)
Area = (pi) x (120) x (70) = 26,389.4 square metres. (rounded)

How could you calculate the surface area of a shape?
To calculate the surface area of a shape find the area of each side, and then, add all of the areas together. The sum of the areas is the surface area.
How do you calculate the surface of a wedge?
split the wedge into a triangle and a and rectangle or square. Then calculate the surface area for each shape and add them together
What is the surface of a shape?
The surface of a shape is dependent on its shape and dimensions.
What is the amount of surface a shape has?
Surface area of a shape depends on what shape you have in mind.
What is the shape with one surface?
The shape with just one surface is.... a sphere.
How could you calculate the surface area of a shape?
To calculate the surface area of a shape find the area of each side, and then, add all of the areas together. The sum of the areas is the surface area.
What is the formula to calculate surface area?
It depends on the shape whose surface area you are interested in.
How do you calculate the surface of a wedge?
split the wedge into a triangle and a and rectangle or square. Then calculate the surface area for each shape and add them together
How do you calculate surface area to volume ratio?
You measure or calculate the surface area; you measure or calculate the volume and then you divide the first by the second. The surface areas and volumes will, obviously, depend on the shape.
How do you calculate the surface area or volume of each shape?
we can use integration.- multiple integration.
How do you calculate the surface-area-to-volume-ratio?
The surface-area-to-volume ratio may be calculated as follows: -- Find the surface area of the shape. -- Find the volume of the shape. -- Divide the surface area by the volume. The quotient is the surface-area-to-volume ratio.
What is the surface of a shape?
The surface of a shape is dependent on its shape and dimensions.
How do you calculate the surface area of any shape?
The method usually fits into one of two general categories: 1). Use the formula that has been developed for the surface area of that particular shape. 2). Break the shape down into pieces with shapes for which the formula for the surface area has been previously developed, and then apply the method of Category #1.
What is the amount of surface a shape has?
Surface area of a shape depends on what shape you have in mind.
What is the amount of space needed to cover something?
That would be called surface area. The way to calculate surface area varies depending on the shape of the surface. A quick google search such as "how to find surface area of a sphere" should solve your dilemma.
What is the shape with one surface?
The shape with just one surface is.... a sphere.
To calculate the area of the front surface of the front of a box?
If it's just the front surface of a box then it's simply a 2D shape, the area can be calculated by multiplying the length by the width. Answer will be in units squared.
