Geometry calculators
Geometry tools here cover areas and perimeters of flat shapes, triangles, volumes and surface areas of solids, coordinate geometry and conic sections, ratios such as aspect ratio and map scale, and two practical estimators for flooring and paint. Each calculator names its formula and shows the substitution, so you can see where a number came from.

Length, area and volume scale differently
Perimeter is measured in units, area in square units and volume in cubic units, and that difference has practical consequences. Doubling the side of a square doubles its perimeter but multiplies its area by four; doubling the side of a cube multiplies its volume by eight. This is why a 16-inch pizza has nearly twice the area of a 12-inch one.
For flat shapes, the Area Calculator covers the common cases, while the Circle, Ellipse, Sector, Quadrilateral and Regular Polygon calculators go deeper on one shape each. For solids, use the Volume Calculator for capacity and the Surface Area Calculator for material that wraps the outside, such as paint, sheet metal or packaging.
Solving triangles
A triangle is fully determined by three pieces of information that include at least one side. With a right triangle, the Pythagorean theorem a² + b² = c² links the sides. For any triangle, the Triangle Solver uses the law of sines and the law of cosines to find the missing sides and angles, and flags the ambiguous case where two different triangles fit the same data.
When you know all three sides but no angles, Heron's formula gives the area directly from the semi-perimeter. It is handy for land plots and irregular shapes that can be split into triangles.
Coordinates, conics and real-world scale
Coordinate geometry turns shapes into algebra. The distance between two points comes from the Pythagorean theorem, the midpoint is the average of the coordinates, and the slope is rise over run. The Coordinate Geometry Calculator gives all three at once, and the Conic Section Analyzer identifies circles, ellipses, parabolas and hyperbolas from their equations.
Scale tools apply the same idea of proportion to real objects. The Map Scale Calculator turns a measured map distance into a ground distance, and the Aspect Ratio Calculator keeps screens and images in proportion when you resize them.
