You can find the answer to this question if you drew it up in CAD and let CAD tell you.

You can also figure the area by using coordinates.

If you know how to calculate the coordinates then http://www.woodlotinfoshop.ca/inside.asp?cmPageID=114 will calculate the area for you.

Or if you do not know how to calculate the coordinates but you do know how to calculate the azimuth then you could use this website. http://www.woodlotinfoshop.ca/resources.asp?cmPageID=190
