Best Answer

4,840 square yards or 43,560 square feet, almost the same size as a football field.
1 acre = 43,560 square feet.

It can be any shape, as long as the enclosed area is 43,560 square feet.

If it's square, then each side of the square is 208.71 feet long.

If it's a circle, then the diameter of the circle is 235.50 feet.

If the acre is in a rectangle 1 foot wide, then the rectangle is 8.25 miles long.
