What are the standard units of area?
Area represents the size or extent of a two-dimensional surface. Just like length and weight, we use both metric (square meters, square kilometers, hectares) and imperial units (square feet, square yards, square miles, acres):
- Square Meter (m²) is the baseline SI unit of area. 1 square meter is the area of a square whose sides are exactly 1 meter.
- Hectare (ha) is a metric unit representing 10,000 square meters (roughly equal to a square with 100m sides). It is the standard land measurement unit in Europe and agriculture.
- Acre (ac) is the traditional land measurement unit used in the US and UK. Historically, 1 acre was the amount of land a single yoke of oxen could plow in one day. 1 acre is equal to exactly 43,560 square feet.
