How do you find out the acreage of a piece of land by knowing the footage of the circumference?

It is not possible.
The math is such that a long skinny site has a long circumference and little area and a short wide one has a short circumference and a lot of area. The circumference is not enough information.
If you give the length of each straight side and specify at least two of the corner angles than it is possible to calculate the area.
Give each corner a letter - A, B, C, D etc.
Submit something like this:
Side A-B 60 feet
Angle B 90 degrees
Side B-C 30 feet
Angle C 90 degrees
Side C-D 50 feet
Side D-A 28 feet
Alternatively, if you don't know the angles, give one of the diagonal measurements.
Side A-B 60 metres
Side B-C 30 metres
Side C-D 50 metres
Side D-A 28 metres
Diagonal A-C 52 metres
* obviously the US and UK use feet and the rest of the world uses metres. Use whatever units you are comfortable with.

the circumference of a pencil depends on its size. Also, to a certain degree of accuracy. if you want to know the circumference of the pencil with the lead inside, measure the line exactly in the middle of the circle at the bottom of the pencil and times your answer by pi. Hope this helps :s
What is the square footage of a room 14 by 15 and how do you know how much flooring you will need?
210 sq ft. Typically carpet comes in 12' and 15' widths. If you get a 15' wide piece, you would want it to be 15' long (1 extra foot to trim off). If you get a 12' wide piece, you will need to seam a section along one side. With a 12' piece you would need 20'. This would put your seam in in 3 pieces.

How do you calculate square footage on corrugated board?
Lay out or stand up the piece you're interested in. -- Take out your tape and your calculator. -- Measure the length of the piece, in inches. -- Then measure the width of the piece, in inches. -- Multiply the two numbers. -- Divide the product by 144. The result is now the square footage of the piece or area you measured
