Needing the area of an irregular Pentagon 2017-12-06
Dale pose la question :
I'm needing to find the square footage of an irregular pentagon.
I've seen the other questions similar to this one, but without a great deal of difficulty can't get you the angle degrees, or the length between opposing angles.
I'm hoping that a different bit of information can help. So here goes:
The longest side is 67ft long.
One of its legs is 39ft long, and the other is 18ft long.
The leg off of the other end of the 39ft leg is 35ft long.
The leg off of the other end of the 18ft is 49ft long, and meets the other end of the 35ft side.
The information that I DO have, which I'm hoping makes the difference, is that the 39ft and the 18ft sides are parallel.
Also, while the angles at each end of the 67ft side are not right angles, they are fairly close to it, approximately 80 degrees at the 39 ft side corner, and 100 degrees at the 18ft side corner.

Dale.

An enclosure for some remote control boats 2017-10-03
Roberto pose la question :
I am trying to build a "ring" for our remote control boats, using irrigation pipe. I'd like to use full 20' long sticks for the long sides and use eight of what we call 45s, which are actually 135' fittings to make the six short sides. If I know the length of the two long sides, what would be the formula to find the exact lengths of the short sides?

Thank you.

Surface area of an irregular shape 2008-12-15
Patrick pose la question :
An irregular shaped object (lets say a gold nugget, not smooth with pockets) can have its volume determined by comparing its mass in water.

Is there any method or means or anything that could be used to determine the surface area of this shape? Whether that be theoretical mathematical formula to using a special infrared technique,etc...

The problem I foresee is that the component parts cannot be divided into smaller geometric shapes. I would propose an answer although I don't know if it is a good one: A liquid material that dries super-thin, but has a very specific and easily determined volume/mass is coated over the object. Measure the mass difference between the beginning sample of fluid and the mass after the object has been coated. Then determine the surface area of the same mass of fluid in a geometric shape. Is this feasible?

Irregular polygon and Circle that Intersects All Sides 2008-08-20
Xetro pose la question :
Hi, Suppose you have an irregular polygon(convex or concave) with n > 3 sides. The question is - Find some circle that will cut(in limiting case - touch) all the sides of that polygon. It doesnt matter how many times it cuts the side(1 or 2), it just have to cut or touch it. How to find such a circle? or how to decide if such circle even exists? What if those segments do not form a polygon but are some arbitrary segments ? Really want to know how to do it................ Thanks a lot.. Regards, Xetro

The centroid of a polygon 2007-12-29
David pose la question :
I am playing around with an idea. I've read previous answers to questions (using surveyor calculation methods) related to finding the area of an irregular shape parcel of land (or irregular polygon). Is there a formula or method for calculating the centroid (mid-point) for this type of polygon. I've seen plenty of methods for calculating the mid-point for a triangle or regular shape poloygon but few for an irregular shape polygon such as a parcel of land. Thanks...

Is there a way I can calculate correct square footage for odd shapes? 2007-08-31
Tom pose la question :
I manage a golf course, and we are about to over seed the course for the upcoming winter months. We will be over seeding all greens, fairways, and tee boxes. Noone of the area that we will be placing seed on is a regular shape. The closest shapes they would be is a circle, rectangle or square, but most of them are all odd CURVED shapes. I know what the equation is for Square ft., and I know how many Square ft. are in an acre, but I need to be precise with the amount of seed I order. Is there a way I can calculate correct square footage for odd shapes.
