An acre is a unit of area, not length, and it is equal to 43,560 square feet. To find the length of a side of a square acre, you would need to calculate the square root of the area of an acre. The square root of 43,560 square feet is approximately 208.71 feet. Therefore, the length of a side of a square acre is approximately 208.71 feet.

JudyAn 'acre' is an amount of coverage of a surface. It can be any shape, as long as it covers 1 acre of surface.
If it's a square plot of land, then each side of the square is [ 208.7 feet ] long (rounded).
If it's a circular plot of land, then the diameter of the circle is [ 117.75 feet ] (rounded).
It could be a rectangle measuring [ 180 ft by 242 ft ].
Or it could be a rectangle measuring [ 360 ft by 121 ft ].
Or a rectangle measuring [ 45 ft by 968 ft ].
Or a rectangle measuring [ 87,120 ft by 6 inches ].
In each case, the area inside the boundary is 43,560 square feet. THAT'S what makes it one acre,
not any particular shape.

What is the length of a side on a square 3 acre?
Each side of the square 3 acres would measure 361.5 feet, approximately.
If there is a perfect square with each side being 7.5 acres long how many feet is the perimeter?
Perimeter (of a perfect square) is 4 times side length. The side length is acres, but an acre is area and we need distance. One acre has a side about 208.7 ft (if it is square). Therefore, 1565.25 ft is your side length. Back to perimeter: p= 4 (1565.25) Your perimeter is 6,261 ft.
If An acre contains 43560 ft and a square lot contains 2.5 acres so What is the length of each side to the nearest foot?
The length of each side of a square with an area of 2.5 acres is: 330 feet.
How long and how wide is one half acre?
An acre is 43,560 square feet. Half an acre is half that amount. Choose any number of feet for the length, then divide the square feet (for half an acre) by that number to get the width.
How long is each side of a 40 acre square?
One side of a 40-acre square is 1,320 feet.
