Hi,

>> Which is the best way to calculate separately the up side of the drawing?

Create a hatch, then select the hatch and look to the property window ==> it shows the area of the hatch.

As an alternative approach you can draw line between arc end points. Join arc and line using PEDIT command. Finally use AREA > Object command.

Try typing in "FEILD" in the command line.

If you search this forum under "Auto Enter Areas" there are pointers on how to use it.

If it is an arc, select it, look at properties.

Hi and welcome to AutoDesk Forum,

additional way is to make boundary polyline by BPOLY command, then by Arae command or Ctrl+1 (Proprieties dialog ) you will know the area. see below screencast on how to deal with and also see also at the end how to fix the arc because i doubt that it's correct.

Good Luck .. 🙂

Another option [as if you don't have enough already], if that's an Arc on top and a Line across the middle: REGION, select the Arc and Line, select the resulting Region and look at its Area in the Properties palette.
