b = base. h = height.Depends what shape. A rectangle or square is length x width. A trapezoid is h/2(b1 +b2). A triangle is 1/2bh. A circle is pi x r^2.

How do you figure area of a non geometric shape?

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


How do you find out the height from the area?

You must know what type of geometric shape it is. However, if it is a rectangle (and you know the width), then then the formula is Area/Width=height. Edit your question if it is a different shape.

Which geometric shape has the lowest surface area to volume ratio?

A sphere has the lowest surface area to volume ratio of all geometric shapes. This is because the sphere is able to enclose the largest volume with the smallest surface area due to its symmetrical shape.

How do you find the area of a shape with uneven side's?

There are basically two techniques for finding the area of a shape with uneven or irregularly shaped sides. If the sides can be described by algebraic equations, then integral calculus can be used to find the area. Failing that, you can approximate the irregular shape by fitting in a number of smaller, regularly shaped polygons such as squares and triangles, whose area can be calculated by simple geometric techniques.
