Knowing that the area is 1 square yard doesn't tell you the dimensions, or even the shape.

IF the square yard of area is in the shape of a square, then each side is 3 feet long.

But it doesn't have to be a square. If it's any other rectangle, and the length of the

rectangle is 'L' feet and the width is 9/L feet, then the area is always 1 square yard.

There are an infinite number of rectangular possibilities like this, and another infinite

number of other shapes that it could be.
