Any you like as long as the length of the plot in yards is 227,480 yds divided by the width, making the AREA of the rectangle always 47 acres (227,480 sq yds)

eg the rectangle could be:

1 yd by 227,480 yds;

2 yds by 113,740 yds;

22 yds by 10,340 yds

220 yds by 1,034 yds (or 1 furlong by 47 chains)

An acre was originally the area that an ox could plough in a day, and is likely to have been an rectangle a chain wide and a furlong (furrow-long) long, ie 22 yds by 220 yds = 4840 sq yds. However, as it is a measure of area, it doesn't matter what shape it is as long as the enclosed area covers 1 acre, for example it could be a circle with a radius of approx 39.25 yds

If ABCD is a rectangle and mCBD 47 what is the value of x?

In rectangle ABCD, angle CBD is given as 47 degrees. Since opposite angles in a rectangle are equal and adjacent angles are supplementary, angle ABC (adjacent to CBD) would be 180 - 47 = 133 degrees. Therefore, if x represents the measure of angle CBD, then x = 47 degrees.
