A Dimension, in the mathematical sense, is any direction in which a point can be moved.
A two dimensional plane has 2 directions: up/down, left/right (diagonals are not counted as dimensions)
A three dimensional plane has up/down, left/right, forward/backward
Scientists currently work with the model that we live in 4 dimensional space: up/down, left/right, forward/backward, past/future (3 spatial dimensions +1 dimension of time)
However, there are scientific models (such as string theory) which have more than 4 dimensions.

A dimension is a measurable extent, such as length, width, or height, of an object or space. In mathematics and physics, dimensions refer to the number of coordinates needed to specify a point in space.

∙ 11y agoA dimension is the word used to describe:- Measurements stated, that convey to people, the precise sizes of something. Usually they indicate length, and/or width, and/or height, and/or thickness, and/or diameter, and/or radius and/or area, and/or any other information which is needed to clarify details of an object or thing, using NUMBERS. Architects and Engineers produce drawings which usually contain a large number of 'dimensions' which are essential to convey to the reader of the drawing, exactly what is being asked for.

What would be the outer deminsion of 25 acres?
an acre is 1/4 mile by 1/4 mile area, ie, 1/16 sq miles. 25 of those would be 25/16 sq miles. if the region was a square, then each side would be 5/4 miles, or 1.25 miles.

Why can't humans see four dimensions?
The 4th deminsion is time. If you were to write down everything you do in a 24hour period, then go back and reflect on everything you did, your seeing in the 4th dimension. You can't change what you did, but you can see everything that happened. Its the closest we can get. The human mind is stuck in a forward motion, so we can't travel back. We can only "remember" what has already happend. Scientist are currently working on time travel.
