Calculating Area & Volume

Circle
Area = Square of Diameter x .7854
or Square of Radius x 3.1416
Circumference = Diameter x 3.1416
Diameter = Circumference x .3183
Doubling diameter increases area four times;
tripling diameter increases area nine times, etc.

Square
Area = Square of Side
Diagonal = Side x 1.4142
Side = Diagonal x .7071
Square Inscribed in Circle
Side of Square = Diameter of Circle
x .7071
Circumference of Circle x .2251
Diameter of Circle = Side of Square
x 1.4142
Circumference of Circle = Side of
Square x 4.4429
Square and Circle With Equal Area
Side of Square = Diameter of Circle
x .8862
Diameter of Circle = Side of Square
x 1.128
Circumference of Circle = Side of
Square x 3.545
Rectangle
Area = Length x Width
Diagonal = Square root of sum of
squares of Width and Length
Triangle
Area = Base x of Perpendicular
Height
Cube
Area of Surface = Square of Side x 6
Volume = Cube of Side
Diagonal = Side x 1.732

Pyramid
Lateral Surface Area (not including
base) = Perimeter of Base x
Slant Height
Volume = Area of Base x 1/3
Perpendicular Height
Hexagon (equal sides and angles)
Area = Square of Distance across Flats
x .866
or square of Side 2.598
Side = of Diagonal
or Distance across Flats x .577
Diagonal = Distance across Flats
x 1.155
or Side x 2
Octagon (equal sides and angles)
Area = Square of Distance across Flats
x .828
or Square of Side x 4.828
Side = Diagonal x .383
or Distance across Flats x .414
Diagonal = Distance across Flats
x 1.082
or Side x 2.613
Sphere
Area of Surface = Square of Diameter
x 3.1416
Volume = Cube of Diameter x .5236
Cylinder
Area of Curved Surface = Diameter x
Length x 3.1416
Volume = Square of Diameter x Length
x .7854
Cone
Area of Curved Surface = Diameter of
Base x Slant Height x 1.5708
Volume = Diameter of Base Squared x
Perpendicular Height x .2618
or Area of Base x 1/3
Perpendicular Height
