Use boundary

Calculation path

The base is multiplied by perpendicular height for area, while two copies of the base and side form perimeter.

Calculation path

Area = base x perpendicular height; perimeter = 2 x (base + side).

What you provide

What you provide

  • Base length: Length of the selected base side.
  • Slanted side length: Adjacent side used for perimeter and height validation.
  • Perpendicular height: Shortest perpendicular distance between the parallel bases.

Use boundary

Choose the maximum decimal places shown. This does not increase source accuracy.

Height must not exceed the adjacent side and must be perpendicular rather than measured along the slant.
