There is not enough information to answer the question. First of all, the shape of the area is unknown. Even if it were a rectangle, all that can be said is that one of the sides must be at least sqrt(500) = 22.36 ft (approx).

Take any number L greater than 22.36

and let W = 500/L

Consider a rectangle with Length = L ft and Width = W ft.

The area of such a rectangle is L*W = L*(500/L) = 55 sq ft.

But L is ANY length more than 22.36 feet. There are infinitely many possible values for L.
