Bretschneider's Formula

This calculator uses Bretschneider's Formula to solve for the area of a quadrilateral where the side lengths and the length of the diagonals are known. The formula used is:

Area = 1/4 * sqrt(4p2q2 - (b2+d2-a2-c2)2)
Where:
  • a = side length
  • b = side length
  • c = side length
  • d = side length
  • p = diagonal length
  • q = diagonal length
