The surface area of the left trailing edge flaps on an aircraft can be calculated using basic geometric principles. Trailing edge flaps are aerodynamic devices located on the trailing edge of the wing that can be extended to increase lift and decrease speed during takeoff and landing. Here’s the formula, definition, and SI unit:
- Surface Area of Left Trailing Edge Flaps:
- Measure the length of the left trailing edge flaps (from the root to the tip).
- Measure the width of the left trailing edge flaps (perpendicular to its length).
- Calculate the surface area of the left trailing edge flaps using the formula:
