Hi you Brain boxes..
I have to work out the m2 of the floor area in a store room at work..
The "Powers that be" wish to know..
Can any of you lot do the maths to work out the area please?
I know its not bike related (That's why its in the "off topic" section)..
Any help appreciated
Now where is Andre ?? :)
Photo below:
The area is 51.63 m2
For the formula to work 2 opposite angles have to be known. I used GIMP to get the angles and plugged the data in an online calculator. https://keisan.casio.com/exec/system/1322718508 (https://keisan.casio.com/exec/system/1322718508) See attached screen shots as well.
In this particular case where one angle is a right angle, draw a line from the bottom right corner to the top of the 1.47 length. This creates two triangles. It's easy to work out the area of the bottom triangle.
1/2*1.47*11.13 = 8.181
The area of the new upper triangle can be worked out using Heron's formula.

The unknown length uses Pythgoras Theorem to work it out.
Sqrt(1.47*1.47+11.13*11.13)= 11.226
Put 11.226, 9.84, 9.3 into the Heron Formula =43.456
Therefore total area = 43.456 + 8.181 = 51.637
Which agrees with Andre. :cheers:
After using numerous equations and formula I reckon its a big area :)
Was that the Big Room Equation, Notty? :rofl2:
Blime Monarchjock
I am very impressed.
Thank you for your efforts
Brilliant mate.

Thanks to you as well Andre.
Sorry I looked at the forum on my phone and without glasses so I missed your response initially. Sorry.
Thanks for your efforts.

A-B = the square on the hippopotamus is equal to the sum of the Giraffe and Elephant squared minus your age
divide by the size of your bike ! :)

That's cheating Notty, you only know that cause Mrs Notty was a teacher & I bet she told you.

The angle of the dangle x the heat of the meat = the mass of the ass ?
Just drew the shape/angles etc on CAD & mine came out at 52.426 sq m Different again. :bugga:
I don't think there is enough info in the original post unless you confirm the angle of the bottom left hand corner is 90 degrees.

Shaky hand/mouse syndrome or you did not account for the windowsill :rofl2:
Seriously, any will be more than fine. I doubt the "powers to be" want to know the square micrometer.

Oooh I wonder if she "disciplins" him ?? :P
I bet he does get a clip round the ear from time to time.
You blokes are pure genius. I have enough trouble working out a square room.

Men would pay a lot of money to stand in the corner and be caned by an older woman- I get discount !! :)
:devil: :P :drool:
Nowt like being severely spanked with a damp daffodil, eh Notty. :whistling:
