How it works

Multiply the base by its perpendicular height.

FORMULA

Area = base × height

A worked example

Base 6 m and height 4 m give 24 m².

Formula & detailed explanation

Lengths nonnegative. Sloping side length is not height.

Calculations use decimal arithmetic with 40 significant digits internally. Choose 0–8 decimal places for the displayed result. Trailing zeros are omitted. Rounding affects only the displayed and copied result; very small values may round to zero. Accepted inputs have up to 100 characters and magnitudes from 10⁻¹⁰⁰ to 10¹⁰⁰, plus zero.
