Land Area Calculator
Measure rectangular, triangular or trapezoidal plot areas.
Open this toolPlot area depends on the boundary shape and the direction of its measurements. A sloping side is not a triangle's perpendicular height.
Choose the matching simple shape and enter reliable dimensions. Compare the calculated area with surveyed information before using it for a land transaction.

How to use
- Choose shape and measurement unit. Enter length or first parallel side, width or perpendicular height and second parallel side.
- Choose marla definition. Enter custom marla area.
- Select Calculate estimate. Read the returned values alongside the assumptions below before copying, exporting or acting on the result.
Why use this tool
The shape choices make common rectangular, triangular and trapezoidal measurements easier to check without combining unrelated formulas.
Before relying on the result
Use perpendicular height for triangles and trapezoids. Irregular boundaries need surveyed measurements.
Tool limitations
Use perpendicular height for triangles and trapezoids. Irregular boundaries need surveyed measurements.
Questions
Can it measure an irregular property boundary?
Not from a single simple shape. Irregular plots need surveyed dimensions and an appropriate division into measured sections.
What should I check before using Land Area Calculator?
Check Shape, Measurement unit, Length or first parallel side and Width or perpendicular height. Use the exact units shown beside the controls and replace any example values with your own inputs.
