Measuring Guide

Easy mathematics can take a lot of the guess work out of measuring your turf area. Use any of the following formulas to meet your yard design or layout. Circle A = 3.14 x r2 Example: Circle's radius (r) is 10 feet. Multiply the known 3.14 by the radius squared. Thus: A = 3.14 x 102 A = 3.14 x 100 A = 314 square feet Square &  Rectangle A = Base x Height Example: Square or Rectangle's base is 10 feet, and the Square or Rectangle's height is 10 feet. Thus: A = 10 x 10 A = 100 square feet Triangle A = (Base x Height)÷2 Example: Triangle's base is 10 feet and the height (base to point) is 20 feet. Thus: A = (10 x 20)÷2 A = 200÷2 A = 100 square feet Combination Free-Form Break the free-form area down to obvious forms and calculate each form's area. Once each form is calculated, add the areas together to derive the total area. Breakdown to Forms Example: Circle A = 3.14 x r2 Rectangle A = b x h Square A = b x h (As a rule it is wise to add an additional 10% to cover estimation and measuring error for a free form lawn)
