How the spherical triangle area Calculator Works
The calculator applies the exact formula A = R²·(α + β + γ − π). Worked example: R = 6 cm, angles 90° + 60° + 45° → E = 15° = 0.2618 rad → A = 9.42 cm². Keep every input in one unit system and the result follows in square units (m², ft², cm²); full precision is kept until the final rounding. All side lengths must share one unit or the area comes out scaled wrongly.
