An ellipse is an oval shape defined by two radii: semi-major axis (a) and semi-minor axis (b). Area calculation is simpler than circumference, using a straightforward formula.

Формула

Area = π × a × b where a is semi-major axis and b is semi-minor axis

  1. 1Enter semi-major axis a
  2. 2Enter semi-minor axis b
  3. 3Multiply π × a × b

Worked Examples

Инпут
a = 8 cm, b = 5 cm
Резултат
Area ≈ 126 cm²
π × 8 × 5 ≈ 126

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Using major/minor diameter instead of semi-axes
  • Forgetting the π constant
