Usually it is two semi-circles with straight stretches "inserted" between them.
If the semicircles have radius r units, and the length of the straight sections is s units then
Area = pi*r2 + 2r*s square units.

How do you calculate the shaded area of a half oval?
An oval, or more technically an ellipse, has a long ( major) axis and short (minor axis). If major axis length is a and minor length is b, then area, A is A = pi*a*b /4 where and so the area of half an oval is pi*a*b/8
Can anyone help me find any information about Las Campanas Sanitorium in Compton CA?
