Formulas for two dimensional | Triangle, Quadrilateral, Circle
What is two dimensional shape
A shape with only having two dimensions of width and height and not having another dimension like thickness then it is called two dimensional shape. For example Circles, Triangles, rectangle, Squares, … etc are called two dimensional objects.
Two dimensional shape also known as “2D”.
In this article cover maximum all two dimensional shapes propertied with formulas of area and perimeter calculations.
Formulas of a Triangle:
Area of the triangle = (1/2) x Base x Height
Area of the triangle ABC = (1/2) x a x h
For more concepts regarding the triangles please go through the below link
Trapezium (Trapezoid) :
Here AD || BC , Height from base AD to base BC is ” h” and length of AD = a and BC = b
Then Area of Trapezium (Trapezoid) ABCD = (1/2 ) (a + b) h.
Parallelogram:
Area of parallelogram = bh
Perimeter of parallelogram = 2 ( b+ h)
Rectangle:
Area of the rectangle = bh
Perimeter of the rectangle = 2 (b + h)
Length of diagonal ( l ) = √ b2 + h2
Rhombus:
Here height, AB = BC = CD = DA = b & AB || DC , AD || BC
are the diagonals
Area of the Rhombus ABCD = bh
Area of the Rhombus ABCD = (1/2) d1 d2
Perimeter of rhombus = 4b
Square :
Here length of the side for square ABCD = a
Length of diagonal = d = √2 a
Area of the square = b2
Area of the square ABCD = (1/2) d2
Perimeter of the square = 4b
Kite:
Here BC = DC = a & AB = AD = b
d1 is the length of a diagonal.
d2 is the length of the other diagonal.
Area of kite = (1/2) d1 d2.

Area and circumference of a circle:
Here Origin of the circle = O , Diameter = D and Radius = r
Area of a circle (A ) = π r 2 =( π/4 ) D2 = 0.7854 D2
Circumference of a circle ( C ) = 2 π r = π D.
Area of circle =( 1/2) x Circumference x radius
A = (1/2) x C x r
Diameter of a circle (D) = √(A/0.7854).
Arc and sector of a circle:
Here angle between two radii is ” θ” in degrees. . And sector of a circle AOB.
Arc length of circle( l ) (minor) = ( θ /360) x 2 π r = θ π r / 180
Area of the sector (minor) = ( θ /360) x π r 2
If the angle θ is in radians, then
The area of the sector = (θ/2) r 2
Sector angle of a circle θ = (180 x l )/ (π r ).
Segment of circle and perimeter of segment:
Here radius of circle = r , angle between two radii is ” θ” in degrees.
Area of the segment of circle = Area of the sector – Area of ΔOAB.
Area of the segment = ( θ /360) x π r 2 + ( 1 /2) x sinθ x r 2
Perimeter of the segment = (θ π r / 180) + 2r sin (θ/2).
Chord length of the circle = 2 √ [ h (2r – h ) ]
Arc Length of the circle segment = l = 0.01745 x r x θ

Area of the circular ring:
Here big circle radius = R and Dia = D,
Small circle radius = r and Dia = d,
Area of a circular ring = 0.7854 (D 2 – d 2) = (π/4) ( D 2 – d 2)
Area of a circular ring = π (R 2 – r 2 ).
Formula for intersecting chords in circle:
Here AB and CD are two chords in circle and intersecting each at the point E.
Then AE : EB = DE : EC.
Formula for length of the tangents of circles:
Here Two circles origins O & O’ and radius are r1 and r2 respectively.
Direct common tangent AB & transverse common tangent = CD
Length of direct common tangent AB = √ [ (Distance between two origins)2 – (r1 -r2)2 ]
= √ [ (OO’)2 – (r1 -r2)2 ]
Length of transverse common tangent AB = √ [ (Distance between two origins)2 – (r1 +r2)2 ]
= √ [ (OO’)2 – (r1 +r2)2 ]
