You must convert each measurement (length and width) from whatever unit of measurement you have used into feet; then multiply the length (in feet) times the width (in feet). The result will be the area in square feet.

To calculate square feet, multiply the length of an area by its width. For example, if a room is 10 feet long and 12 feet wide, the square footage would be 120 square feet (10 feet x 12 feet = 120 square feet).

Depends on the shape. For squares, it's length X width. Triangle is 1/2base X height. Circle is pi X radius2
