Ellipse - Metric
Calculate the area and perimeter of an ellipse.
This calculator uses metres for measurements.
Ellipse = squashed circle.
Ellipse Area and Perimeter - Metric
Calculation
- length a in metres
- length b in metres
- decimal precision, the number of digits after the decimal point
Results
- the area of the ellipse in square metres
- area in square feet
- the area in square inches
- the perimeter of the ellipse in metres
- the perimeter in feet
- the perimeter in inches
Formula
A = ab/4
P = 𝛑R(1+(3H)/(10+√(4-3*H)))
where A is the area of the ellipse
a length of the short diameter
b length of the l diameter
P the perimeter of the ellipse
𝛑 = 3.14159265
R = (a+b)/2
S = (a-b)/2
H = R²/S²
