That would depend upon the shape of the one acre, which contains 43,560 square feet.

If it is a perfect circle, an acre has a radius of (sqrt 43560 / 3.1415) 117 feet 9 inches.

If it is square, then each side has a length of (sqrt 43560) 208 feet 8.5 inches.

For other shapes, ask the math FAQ. If the acre is square, then each side would be 208' 8.5"

So the perimeter would be 834.8 feet.

However, if the shape is other than a square, then the perimeter would vary. An acre measures 43,560 square feet, and that could be made up by any number of difference rectangles (to say nothing of non-regular shapes) which could range from the square mentioned above to one measuring one foot by 43,560 feet. SUch an unlikely rectangle would have a perimeter of 87,112 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'


How many feet on the perimeter to 1 acre?

An acre is 43,560 sq ft. It can have endless shapes and perimeters. Ex - 290.4 x 150 would have a peremeter of 880.8 feet


In feet how big is a third acre square?

A square with an area of 1/3 acre measures 120.5 feet on each side with a perimeter of 482 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.


How many feet in 1 acre?

1 acre = 43,560 square feet.


How many sq feet are in acre?

1 acre = 43560 sq feet.


What is the perimeter of an acre?

An acre is a unit of area, but its actual shape may vary. It doesn't have to be shaped like a square. The more oblong the shape, the greater the perimeter becomes. If it is a perfect square, however, then its perimeter in feet will be four times the square root of its area in square feet. An acre is equal to 43,560 square feet. The square root of that is 208.71, so the perimeter is 834.84 feet if the acre is square. The minimum value of perimeter for a given area will always occur with a circular shape. Area = Pi x d2/4, perimeter = Pi x d, so for 1 acre perimeter comes to 739.9 ft.

How many feet go around a 1 acre?

There's no single answer, because there are an infinite number of correct answers.From knowing the area (1 acre), that doesn't tell you the dimensions, or the perimeter(distance around the edge).Here are a few examples. Everything on this list is 1 acre."Perimeter" means how much fence it takes to go around:40' x 1089'Perimeter = 2258'90' x 484'Perimeter = 1148'120' x 363'Perimeter = 966'121' x 360'Perimeter = 962'180' x 242'Perimeter = 844'208.71' squarePerimeter = 834.8'235.5' circleCircumference = 739.9'
