1. Measure the short radius and the long radius. The short radius is the shortest straight-line distance between a point on the oval and the center of the oval; the long radius is the longest straight-line distance between the center of the oval and a point on the oval.

2. Double both of those numbers.

3. Square the doubled numbers.

4. Add the squared numbers together.

5. Divide by 2.

6. Find the square root of Step 5.

7. Multiply Step 6 by pi.

Possible solution:

1. 3 and 5

2. 6 and 10

3. 36 and 100

4. 136

5. 68

6. 8.25

7. 25.905

What is the perimeter or circumference of an oval or ellipse?

It isn't possible to give a generalised formula for the circumference of an ellipse in terms of elementary functions. The circumference (or perimeter) of an oval is represented by an infinite series based on multiple aspects of the oval including: * Eccentricity * Implied length ("major radius") * Implied width ("minor radius")

How many linear feet in a 33X18 foot oval?

To find the linear feet around an oval, you would typically calculate the circumference. The formula for the circumference of an oval is (a + b)π, where a and b are the semimajor and semiminor axes of the oval. In this case, for a 33x18 foot oval, the semimajor axis (a) would be 33/2 = 16.5 feet and the semiminor axis (b) would be 18/2 = 9 feet. Therefore, the circumference would be (16.5 + 9)π = 25.5π feet. This is approximately 80.07 feet.


Is a circle an oval?

NO!!! Circle ; from its centre the distance to the edge(circumference) is equal . Ellipse(Oval) ;from its centre the distance to its edge(circumference) can vary. Casually, you can think of an oval as a squashed circle. In the coordianet plane ; A circle has the Equation x^2 + y^2 = 1 An Oval has the Equations x^2/a^2 + y^2/b^2 = 1 The 'a' & 'b' represent the eccentricity of the oval (ellipse), and the lengths of the major and minor axes.

What is the circumference of a 15x30 ft oval?

Oval = 2 semicircles connected with two parallel lines which are spaced by the diameter of the semicircle. Circumf. = (Pi x 15) + (2*15) = 15 Pi + 30 = 77.124 (to nearest 3rd decimal). Please note that an oval is not an ellipse.


How many meters in a 1 oval?

An oval's length can vary significantly based on its specific dimensions, as "oval" refers to a broad shape rather than a fixed measurement. However, if you're referring to an athletic track, a standard oval track typically has a circumference of 400 meters for one complete lap. If you mean a specific type of oval, please provide additional details for a more accurate answer.


How long and how wide would you make an oval track to get 220yrds?

If you use the formula for determining the circumference of a circle, C=pi*diameter, you can calculate the "ends" of the oval and then determine how long the sides of the oval need to be. For example, if the distance between the 2 long parallel sides of the oval is 20 yards, the circumference of a circle with the diameter of 20 yards is 63 yards (actually 62.8). If you dissect the circle and use one side for one end of the oval and the other side for the other end, you end can figure out how long the parallel sides would need to be. Calculate the length of the 2 sides, subtract 63 yards, the measurement of the 2 ends of the oval, from 220. This would be 157 yards. Then divide 157 by 2 to get the length of the 2 sides of the oval. This would be 78.5 yards. Therefore, the dimensions of this oval would be 20 yards wide by 98.5 yards.
