Adecent-sized square plot of land in town is one acre. if mr. pearson wants to play football with his son connor, then how far can they throw the football from corner to corner?

43,560 square feet is equal to one acre
If the land is a square (where the length would be equal to width), it is 208.71 ft by 208.71 ft in the meantime 208.71  x  208.71 = 43,560
If the land is rectangular, you would need to distinguish the length of one of the sides in order to know the length of the other side.
