square = a 2

rectangle = ab

parallelogram = bh

trapezoid = h/2 (b1 + b2)

circle = pi r 2

ellipse = pi r1 r2

triangle = (1/2) b h

equilateral triangle = (1/4sqrt(3) a 2

triangle given SAS = (1/2) a b sin C

triangle given a,b,c = sqrt[s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)] when s = (a+b+c)/2 (Heron's formula)

regular polygon = (1/2) n sin(360°/n) S2
   when n = # of sides and S = length from center to a corner
