Area Command

From GeoGebraWiki

The Area command has two variants:

• Area[point A, point B, point C, ...] - creates a number with the area of the polygon ABC...
• Area[conic c] - creates a number with the area of conic c

Notes:

• Returns the area of polygon specified by the points but does NOT create the polygon.
• Points explicitly specified in the parameter list are not created.
• The conic must be a circle or ellipse.
• If the parameter is a polygon object nothing is returned, but no error message is generated either!
• A unique name will be given to the number containing the area one is not provided.

Examples:

• T_area = Area[A,B,C] - computes the area of triangle ABC and assigns it to the variable T_area
• C_area = Area[c] - computes the area of conic c and assigns it to the variable C_area
