This was answered on this site 2 months ago by harley01xlc (Level 3) whose answer was voted the best and it went like this:
"There are 4840 square yards in an acre. You wanted this in feet so
just multiply by 9 to get 43560 square feet (there are 9 square
feet in a square yard). It may seem strange that this is not a
perfect square, but there is also a unit of length called the
acre-length that is 220 yards. 220 squared is 48400, so an acre
is a plot of land 220 yards by 22 yards. Then 10 acres side by
side are 220 yards by 220 yards, and an 8 by 8 square of these 10
acre plots is one square mile. "
I can't say it better than that!

Acre = 4 roods = 10 sq chains = 4840 sq yards = Statute acre [0.40 hectare], now there are 9 square feet in a square yard so the answer is 43560 or there abouts.

Which is a much more reliable way then using yahoo answers.
