Calculating Areas

To calculate an area you define

  1. From the Tools menu, choose Inquiry. Then choose Area.
  2. Specify points in a sequence that defines the perimeter of the area to be measured. Then press ENTER.

AutoCAD LT connects the first and last points to form a closed area and displays the area and perimeter measurements using the settings specified with DDUNITS.
