AREA FORMULAS
Your new calculator can perform these helpful
formulas -- right in feet, inches and fractions --
to provide even more useful solutions to your
dimensional problems.*

Area = πab
* For calculations involving cubed variables (i.e., r
3
), use the
x
2
key to raise it to the second power, then multiply the
result by itself once more to achieve the desired
exponential value. For example, to find 2
3
press: 2 [Conv]
[√] = 4 [x] 2 gives you 8.
