Square Footage Calculator

Calculate square footage for rectangular, circular, and triangular areas with unit conversion, perimeter for rectangles, optional cost per square foot, and practical material planning guidance.

Inputs and method

Choose rectangle, circle, or triangle, enter positive dimensions and units, and optionally enter cost per square foot. Dimensions are converted before applying the shape formula; optional cost multiplies unrounded area by the entered rate.

Calculations retain full floating-point precision until the labeled display step. Counts and packages use an explicit upward ceiling only where a whole purchase unit is required.

Interpreting the estimate

Use the result as a planning value and keep input precision consistent with the measurements or source data you have. Small displayed differences can come from final-place rounding; intermediate values are not rounded.

Assumptions and limits

Irregular boundaries, excluded areas, measurement tolerance, and installation waste are not inferred. Break complex spaces into measured shapes.

Empty entries, invalid numbers, prohibited negatives, zero denominators, impossible relationships, and unsupported options trigger a validation message instead of a misleading result.
