Area[ <Point>, ..., <Point> ]
Calculates the area of the polygon defined by the given points.
Example:
Area[(0, 0), (3, 0), (3, 2), (0, 2)] yields 6.
Area[ <Conic> ]
Calculates the area of a conic section (circle or ellipse).
Example:
Area[x^2 + y^2 = 2] yields 6.28.
Area[ <Polygon> ]
Yields the area of the polygon.
Note:
  • In order to calculate the area between two function graphs, you need to use the command Integral.
  • Also see tool Tool Area.gif Area.
