Is it 40 ft on a side? that's a big tent.
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Or 40 ft across the diagonal?
\n" ); document.write( "If it's 40 across the diagonal, it's 6 equilateral triangles with 20 foot sides.
\n" ); document.write( "Area of each triangle is 20*10*sqrt(3)/2
\n" ); document.write( "Total area = 600*sqrt(3) =~1039.23 sq feet
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------
\n" ); document.write( "For 40 feet on a side, it's 4 times that.
\n" ); document.write( "
