Divide it up so you have a large rectangle in the centre, which is easy to work out.
Then you should have a maximum of 2 right angled triangles at either end, which are also easily worked out.
The above assumes 2 walls are parallel. If they are not, you'll have 3 right angled triangles.

if it was a squareish shape it would be 1083.643 m2
but you have to knock off the triangular end bits where the sides aren't parellel
on one side you would have to lose 4.73 m2 and on the other you would have to lose 3.4365 m2
the tricky part is losing both sides but not losing the bit wehre the cover each other
this would be 0.06 m2
so your toatl floor area would be:
1083.643 - 4.73 -3.4365 + 0.06 = 1075.5365 m2
i thank you

To work out the missing side you used pythagorus (sp) a2+b2=c2

I cant give you a formula for it. I had to draw out your building in autocad using circles, and then take the area from that.
Its not possible to work it out with a formula using only the dimensions.
I think you might need the angles

The problem is that you can have an infinite number of different area shapes using those same size sides, so you HAVE to have the fucking god damn degrees of at least one bastard angle

seeing as i can't see any pics, you'd have to draw a picture, with the angles involved and the lengths of each side
then you can work out the area no matter what, because both sides aren't parallel you have to assume that the angles won't be the same on any 2 corners, none of this oppositte andgles and that

Can't you just divide the shape into two triangles, then use Pythagorus? Then work out the area of the two triangles?
Been a while since i've done any maths more complex than basic sums
I'm doing QS at uni aswell, my first bit of coursework i've just started now, involves researching Biomass Fuels![Surprised](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/bigcry.gif)
EDIT: sorry, just read the thread properly, totally forgot it had to be right angled triangles to use that method of getting triangle areas.
I'll have another think.

Yes - I agree I have found out the correct formulae to work out the area of an irregular quadrilateral BUT I do not know how to work out the angles at each corner, I have the measurments of the sides though and I know that the 4 angles must add up to 360'

Ah right, so i see then.
you take a shape who's angles you DONT KNOW, then you get two triangles with angles you DONT KNOW
Then you divide those into 2 so you have two right angled triangles but you DONT KNOW the dimensions of them cause you DONT HAVE THE FUCKING BASTARD CUNTING ANGLES THAT YOU FUCKING WELL HAVE TO HAVE IN THE FIRST CUNTING PLACE YOU USELESS DRIP OF SCROTUM SWEAT

Ah right, so i see then.
you take a shape who's angles you DONT KNOW, then you get two triangles with angles you DONT KNOW
Then you divide those into 2 so you have two right angled triangles but you DONT KNOW the dimensions of them cause you DONT HAVE THE FUCKING BASTARD CUNTING ANGLES THAT YOU FUCKING WELL HAVE TO HAVE IN THE FIRST CUNTING PLACE YOU USELESS DRIP OF SCROTUM SWEAT
And you know that one of those angles is 90 degrees... for each triangle...
Yes?
Right...
If you know the length of two sides of a right angled triangle, using Triganometry, you can calculate the angles.
I haven't got the time to be trying to work this out... but there must be a way of calculating the size of the sides... infact, if you can work out the diaganal length, you can do it.
Please don't call me a drip of scrotum sweat.

BUT YOU DONT KNOW THE FUCKING LENGTH OF TWO OF THE BASTARDS SIDES DO YOU IN THE FIRST PLACE YOU CUNT!

Cause to do that you would need the fucking angles off the shape in the first cunting place you useless bastard.

Mate, you evidentily don't know either.. so shut the fuck up. ![Top](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/smile011.gif)
And i'd like to add.. this is the first time i've attempted to remember any complex maths, since leaving school a number of years ago.

I'd do it for you, but i've got to get my own shizzle done, and i think the other QS's in the office will look at me funny if i start drawing an 'almost' rectangle and proceding to calculate angles and area!
![Surprised](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/bigcry.gif)
I know for a fact if it was my work that i had to do, i could do it.

But you do need to know the angles as a nearly square one will have a larger area than an almost totally flattened shape with the same size sides.
