how many feet is a acre long
I have looked up many sites but cannot find this measurement.â Since medieval times the acre hasn't had any set dimensions. It is purely an area of 43,560 square feet. The two sides of a 1-acre rectangular lot can be any lengths as long as multiplying one by the other gives 43,560 (if they are measured in feet). For example, imagine a sidewalk 5 feet wide. If it were (43560 Ã· 5 = ) 8712 feet long it would take up an acre, a long skinny acre. On the other hand, if the 1-acre lot were a square, its sides would be only 208.7 feet. 2. What is the perimeter of an acre? âCan you tell me [if the distance around] one acre of land is more than a mile?
