A square mile is an area measurement, not a specific shape. They could be just about anything, as long as they multiply together to make one square mile.
1 mile by 1 mile is a square mile. Two miles by half a mile is a square mile. 1 foot by 5280 miles is a square mile. This means that 8 square miles can be 2 miles by 4 miles or 1 mile by 8 miles.

The length and width of a square are equal. Thus, find the square root of the area and the answer = length= width.
How many miles in a square mile?
A mile squared is a mile long and a mile wide, forming a square, so if you walked the width or the length of a squared, you would walk a mile. A mile is a linear measurement, it measures a distance. A square mile, as with a square kilometre, is an area and measures the amount of ground something covers. You cannot change miles to square miles or vice versa.
What is the length and width of 846 square feet?
if your object is a rectangle then it is not possible to figure out the exact length of and width because we do not know the ratio of the length to width. if your object is a square then... the length is 29.08607914 the width is 29.08607914
How many meters are there in a square mile?
There are no "square yards" in a mile, since a mile is a measure of distance (i.e it is a one-dimensional length), whereas a "square yard" is a measure of area (so is two dimensional, width x length). They are not comparable units; it is the same as asking "how many squares fit along this line?".
