If the area is that of a circle or a regular polygon (triangle, square, reg pentagon etc) there are formulae that will enable you to do so. If it is any other shape - ellipse, irregular polygon, or worse still a random shape - then the area cannot be found.

How do I find the area of a rectangle if I only have the length?
You cannot find the area of a rectangle if you only know its length. You need to know its width too. Then you multiply its length by its width.
How do you find the height when you only have the total square feet and the width?
If you only have square feet, you won't be able to find the height, unless you're mistaking height for length. Area in square feet of a quadrilateral is width times length. To find the length, divide the area by the width.
How do you find the length of the side of a square with only the area?
To find the area of a square, where all four sides are of equal length, you simply square the length of one side: for example, the area of a square of four inches is sixteen square inches, or 42 in. To find the length of the side of a square when you only know the area, you simply reverse the process, and take the square root of the area. The square root of 16 is four, for example.
How do you find the perimeter of a rectangle with only the width or length and the area given?
It not possible you nit witt that is not true length x width = area If you know length and area, solve width width = area / length then 2 x length + 2 x width = perimeter
How do you find the area of the triangles if you only have the base and the height?
area =1/2 base length x height
How do I find the area of a rectangle if I only have the length?
You cannot find the area of a rectangle if you only know its length. You need to know its width too. Then you multiply its length by its width.
How do you find the area of a parallelogram with only the perimeter?
area is length times width
How do you find the length and width of a rectangle when you know the area?
you cannot do this; you have area only and two unknowns - lengthand width but only one equation: area = length x width
How do you find the length of a square only using area?
Square Root
How do you find the height when you only have the total square feet and the width?

How do you find the area of the triangles if you only have the base and the height?
area =1/2 base length x height
How the trigonometric area formula can be used to find the area of an equilateral triangle if you are only given the length of one side?
It is: 0.5*length squared*(sin 60 degrees)
How do you find a square length when you only have the area?
The area of a square is the "length x width" but as these are equal we can put that the area = L2.....where L is the side length of the square. If the value of the area is known then the square root of this figure provides the side length. Example : Area = 36 sq cm, Length L = √36 = 6 cm.
How do you find volume if you only know height?
You cannot, to find an unknown, you need at least two knows facts. IE if the length and width give you area, you cannot get the area without BOTH the length and width.
What measurements do you need to find the area and perimeter of a square?
You only need to know the length of one side. Knowing the side length (s) you can find the area (multiply s by s) and perimeter (multiply s by 4)
