The idea is to multiply length x width. That will give you an answer in square feet. Then you convert that to acres.
The 4 sides of a rectangular 40 acre parcel total one mile. Therefore the length and width of a square 40 acre parcel would each be 1320 feet (5280/4).
acre is a measurement of area, you can not calculate it into a linear measurement (length) without the third factor, which is the width
A square with an area of 40 acres has side lengths of: 1,320 feet (1/4 mile) each.
It is 2*(Length + Width).
