To find the area, first divide the shape into regular, simple shapes. Then use formulas to find the area of the smaller, regular shapes. Lastly, add up all the smaller areas to find the area of the original shape.

Can you get the square foot of an irregular circle only knowing the circumference in feet?

There's no such thing as an "irregular circle". If any point on it is not the same distance from the center as any other point is, then its diameter is not twice its radius, its circumference is not (pi) diameters, its area is not (pi) R2, and it's no circle. The ability to calculate any of these rests on having a complete and detailed description of the exact shape of the figure. From our rough, "back-of-the-napkin" calculations, we estimate that there are approximately an infinite number of different ways in which the figure could be "irregular".
