In a catchment area, the distance of P1 to P4 is 480km. P1 to P20 is 242km, P2 to P3 is 325km, P3 to P4 is 468km, P1 to P3 is 705km, and P4 to P2 is 741km. If the rainfall depths recorded by gauges P1, P2, P2, and P4 are 7mm, 6mm, 4mm, and 8mm and the corresponding polygon areas are 10.250 hec, 218km, 645km, and 243km respectively. Knowing that the gauge reading happened on a 2-yr flood typhoon what is the volume of rainfall in cubic m from this event?
