Dear convert-me.com forum visitors,
Our forum has been available for many years. In September 2014 we decided to switch it to read-only mode. Month after month we saw less posts with questions and answers from real people and more spam posts. We were spending more and more resources cleaning the spam until there were less them 1 legitimate message per 100 spam posts. Then we decided it's time to stop.
All the posts in the forum will be available and searchable. We understand there are a lot of useful information and we aren't going to remove anything. As for the new questions, you can always ask them on convert-me.com FaceBook page
Thank you for being with us and sorry for any inconveniences this could caused.
I have a plot with 5 sides. I've seen the posts on how to figure the acreage if there are 4 sides, but not sure about 5 sides. Can anyone help me with the formula?
The measurements in feet are:
41.93
110
50.70
87.31
114.13
3 sides uniquely determine a triangle and the area can be calculated. For four or more sides, it is not unique without additional information on either the angles, or enough diagonals to divide it into triangles.
The plots associated with deeds usually show the compass beariings of each of the sides. With that, it can be calculated.
