A meter is a length, a square meter is an area. One is not equivalent to the other.

The question, as stated, cannot be answered sensibly. A square metre is a measure of area, with dimensions [L2]. A metre is a measure of distance, with dimensions [L]. The two measure different things and elementary dimensional analysis teaches that you cannot convert between measures with different dimensions such as these without additional information.

A metre is a unit of length. A square metre is a unit of area. The two units are therefore incompatible.

Other possible answers

An area of 1 square meter could measure 1 meter by 1 meter, or 2 meters by 1/2 a meter, or 10 meters by 0.1 meter...
A square metre is a measure of area, with two dimensions, length and width [L2]. A metre is a measure of distance, with one dimension [L]. The two measure different things and basic dimensional analysis teaches that you cannot convert between measures with different dimensions such as these.
