In a rectangular figure, square feet a generated when you multiply the length of an area by its width.
So if a rectangle is 3 feet long by 5 feet wide, the area is 3 x 5 = 15 square feet.
If you are dealing with a triangle, the area is half the length by the height... so a triangle 3 feet wise at the base, and 5 feet high, would be 0.5 x (3 x 5) = 0.5 x 15 = 7.5 square feet.
If you are dealing with circles, the area is derived from the radius. If the radius is 3 feet, the formula is pi x r2 .... in this case pi x 32 or 9 x pi. Taking pi as 3.14 we get an area of 28.27 sq feet.

17 x 15 how many square feet?
To calculate the area of a rectangle, you need to multiply its length by its width. In this case, the length is 17 feet and the width is 15 feet. Therefore, the area of a rectangle with dimensions 17 feet by 15 feet is 255 square feet.
How many yards is 5 feet long by 4 feet wide?
A yard is 3feet. A square yard is 3feet x 3feet; therefore, a square yard is 9sqaure feet. 5feet x 4feet is equal to 20sqare feet. To calculate the area in square yards, devide 20 square feet by 9 square feet. The answer, therefore, is 2.22 square yards.
The perimeter of a square is 280 feet what is the area?
The area is 4,900 square feet.
8 ft by 6 ft how many square meters?
To convert from square feet to square meters, you can use the conversion factor of 1 square meter = 10.764 square feet. First, calculate the area in square feet by multiplying the length (8 ft) by the width (6 ft) to get 48 square feet. Then, divide the area in square feet by the conversion factor to get the area in square meters: 48 sq ft / 10.764 sq ft = 4.46 square meters. Therefore, an 8 ft by 6 ft area is approximately 4.46 square meters.
How do you mesure the length and width in square feet?
You don't measure the length and width in square feet. Square feet is an area. You measure the length and width in feet, then multiply them to get the area in square feet.
