How to Calculate Square Footage

Rectangle: Area = Length × Width
Triangle: Area = ½ × Base × Height
Circle: Area = π × Radius²

Measure dimensions in feet, then multiply according to the shape formula. Convert to square meters by multiplying by 0.0929, or to acres by dividing by 43,560.

Example (Rectangle):
Room: 20 ft × 15 ft
Area = 20 × 15 = 300 sq ft
= 27.87 sq m = 0.0069 acres

Common Conversions

1 sq ft = 0.0929 sq m | 1 acre = 43,560 sq ft | 1 sq m = 10.764 sq ft

FAQ

How do I measure an irregular room?

Break the room into rectangles, triangles, or circles. Calculate each section separately and add them together for the total square footage.

Do I include closets in square footage?

For flooring or painting, include all areas you plan to cover. For real estate, follow local standards for livable space measurement.
