RAG RUG SQUARE FOOTAGE CALCULATOR

In order to know how much fabric you'll need for a rug, you first need to know how many square feet there will be in the finished rug. For square and rectangular rugs, that's easy, (just multiply the length by the width),  but for round and oval rugs, the calculation can be a bit messy. So below are charts of some typical sizes of round and oval rugs, and how many square feet are in the rug. 
 
Finished Rug Size

Area of rug in square feet
2-feet across 3 square feet
3-feet across 7 square feet
4-feet across 12-1/2 square feet
5-feet across 19-2/3 square feet
6-feet across 28-1/4 square feet
