[USMA:29882] RE: Area

If it's L-shaped, you need to split it into two rectangles and add the two areas.   Bill Potts, CMS Roseville, CA http://metric1.org [SI Navigator]     -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of john mercer Sent: Wednesday, May 19, 2004 21:21 To: U.S. Metric Association Subject: [USMA:29881] Area Could anyone please tell me how to find the area of a room in square m?
