One acre is 4,840 square yards or 43,560 square feet. Since you didn't specify, I'll use yards here to keep the numbers small.
A piece of land one yard wide and 9,680 yards long has that amount of area so is two acres.
If you want a square, it will be sqrt(9680) or about 98.4 yards long and wide.
The prime factors of 9,680 are 24 x 5 x 112, so the integers 88 and 110 are the closest together that multiply to get 2 acres; a rectangle of 88 by 110 yards is two acres. This is also 1/20 x 1/16 of a mile. There are 640 acres in a square mile.

Short answer:
You can't tell. The area doesn't tell you the dimensions. There are an infinite
number of different shapes and sets of dimensions that it could have, all with
the same area.
Measure the length and width of your bathtub, then divide. For example, divide length-of-land / length-of-bathtub, and width-of-land / width-of-bathtub.
The length and width are both 447.214 meters. (rounded)
perimeter = length + length + width + width = 2*length + 2*width = 36 length = 5*width 2*(5*width) + 2*width = 36 12*width = 36 width = 3 length = 15
Area = length x width Length = area/width
A rod....5 1/2 feet

It could be any length and width. Land is seldom a square or rectangle but usually follows rivers, roads, state and county lines, etc.
An acre is a unit for area. Width x length. You can obtain the 2.54 acre area with a lot of length and width combinations. If you don't know the length, you cannot determine with any certainty what the width will be.
Information about area is not enough to determine its dimensions. You can, for example, double its length and halve its width without altering the area.
3x^2 plus 5x
perimeter = length + length + width + width = 2*length + 2*width = 36 length = 5*width 2*(5*width) + 2*width = 36 12*width = 36 width = 3 length = 15
Area = length x width Length = area/width
A rod....5 1/2 feet
Length / Width
Length and width
If Length * Width = Area, then Area ÷ width = Length
