1 statute acre (A) = 10 stt.sq.ch. (1 stt. acre = 4 stt.po. x 40 stt.po.)
1 stt.ml. = 60 right angle 3 x 4 x 5 triangles, 4 unit (the 88 ft.) sides laid end to end
60 stt.ml. per hr. = 88 ft. per sec.
1 stt.ml. = 5280 ft. (80 x 66' = 5280') (60 x 88' = 5280') (48 x 110' = 5280')
22' = 1 stt.ch. right angle triangle (16.5' x 22' x 27.5') perpendicular
5280' = 240 stt.ch. right angle triangle (16.5' x 22' x 27.5') perpendiculars
43,560 sq.' = 240 stt.ch. right angle triangle (16.5' x 22' x 27.5') areas
43,560 sq.' = 1 stt. acre
1 stt. acre = 40.468726 Napoleon Emperor's Republic of Europe are (Year of 1804)
10,890 sq.' = 60 stt.ch. right angle triangle (16.5' x 22' x 27.5') areas
10,890 sq.' = 1 stt. rood
1 statute sq. mile = 640 stt. acres (6400 stt.sq.ch.)
     
96 win.lk. = 16 1/2 ft. + 22 ft. + 27 1/2 ft. (66 ft.) (1 stt.ch.)
96 win.lk. = 1 stt.po. + 1 1/3 stt.po. + 1 2/3 stt.po. (4 stt.po.)
1 stt.po. = 24 win.lk. (16 1/2 ft.)
96 win.lk. = 24 win.lk. + 32 win.lk. + 40 win.lk. (22 yd.) (11 fth.)
96 win.lk. = 3x8 win.lk. + 4x8 win.lk. + 5x8 win.lk. = 1 stt.ch. (r/angle 3 x 4 x 5 triangle)
7680 win.lk. = 60 x 4 x 4 x 8 win.lk. (1 stt.ml.)
7680 win.lk. = 60 x 4 x 1 1/3 stt.po. (320 stt.po.)
7680 win.lk. = 60 x 4 x 22 ft. (5280 ft.)
12 in. = 3 in. + 4 in. + 5 in. (1 ft.)
63360 in. = 60 x 264 x 4 in. (1 stt.ml.)
