Review the method below for assumptions and conventions.

How to use this tool

  1. Enter first semiaxis, second semiaxis.
  2. Select Calculate to view the result.
  3. Check the method and assumptions below before using the result.

The method, explained

Area = π × semiaxis a × semiaxis b.

A WORKED EXAMPLE

Using first semiaxis = 5 m, second semiaxis = 3 m, the result is 47.1238898 m². Change these example inputs to match your task; use the method above to check each step.

What to keep in mind

Use the indicated units consistently. Ideal shapes are assumed; dimensions must describe the same object. Display rounding does not increase measurement precision.

Common questions

Which inputs does this calculation need?

Find the enclosed area of an ellipse from its semiaxes. Enter first semiaxis in m, second semiaxis in m. The filled example is editable and is not a saved personal record.

How should I interpret the result?

Use the indicated units consistently. Ideal shapes are assumed; dimensions must describe the same object. Display rounding does not increase measurement precision.
