👉 Zoning math involves the application of geometric and algebraic principles to define and calculate land use areas within a zoned area. It typically uses coordinate systems and distance formulas to determine boundaries and areas of different zones, such as residential, commercial, or industrial. For example, in a grid-based zoning system, each zone is defined by a set of coordinates (x, y) on a grid. The area of each zone is then calculated using the formula for the area of a polygon, such as \( A = \frac{1}{2} \times d_1 \times d_2 \), where \( d_1 \) and \( d_2 \) are the lengths of two adjacent sides. This ensures precise delineation of land use, helping to enforce regulations and manage urban development effectively.
