To find the perimeter of a shape given the area in square feet, you need to know the dimensions of the shape. If it's a square or rectangle, you can calculate the perimeter by finding the square root of the area to get the side length, and then multiply that by 4 for a square or 2 times the sum of the length and width for a rectangle. If it's a different shape, you will need additional information to determine the perimeter.

Since square feet is a measure of area and perimeter is measured in length, you can't, without knowing at least part of the perimeter or the shape involved.

What are the dimensions in miles of a square that is 8 million square feet?

Each side of the square would measure 2,828.43 feet making the perimeter of the square 11,313.72 feet. The diagonal of the square would be 4,000 feet.


How many linear feet is on one side of a square acre?

The area doesn't tell you the perimeter. There are an infinite number of differentshapes with different perimeters 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 perimeter for a 1-acre rectangle is 834.8 feet.That's if it's a square, with sides = 208.7 feet.The perimeter for a 1-acre rectangle can be anything more than that. It onlydepends 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', perimeter = 836'330' x 132', perimeter = 924'440' x 99', perimeter = 1,078'605' x 72', perimeter = 1,354'1,210' x 36', perimeter = 2,492'2,420' x 18', perimeter = 4,876'


What is the perimeter measure of one square yard?

The perimeter of one square yard is 4 yards. Since each side of the square yard is 1 yard long, adding the lengths of all four sides gives a total perimeter of 4 yards.


How many square feet is a room 30 feet long 14 feet wide 9 feet high?

To find the total square footage of the room, you first find the area of the walls by multiplying the perimeter of the room by its height. The perimeter is (2 x length) + (2 x width), then multiply by height. In this case, (2 x 30 + 2 x 14) x 9 = 828 square feet.


How many foot are on an acre?

The distance around is called the perimeter. You can't calculate the perimeter from the area, unless you know the shape. For example, a circle, a square, a 2:1 rectangle, a 3:1 rectangle, all have different perimeters for the same area.
