The area doesn't tell you anything about the shape or the measurements.

There are an infinite number of different shapes with different measurements

that all have the same 1-acre area.

The smallest possible perimeter for 1 acre is a circle. The perimeter (circumference)

is 739.9 feet, and the diameter is 235.5 feet.

The smallest possible straight measurements for a 1-acre rectangle is 834.8 feet.

That's if it's a square, with sides = 208.7 feet.

If the 1-acre is a rectangle but not a square, then the sides can be anything

longer than 208.7 feet. It only depends on how long and skinny the rectangle

is. Here are a few examples. All of the rectangles on this list enclose 1 acre:

220' x 198'

330' x 132'

440' x 99'

605' x 72'

1,210' x 36'

2,420' x 18'
