The only thing that changed was the number of feet and yards in a rod or a furlong, and the number of square feet and square yards in an acre. The definition of the rod went from 15 old feet to 16 + 1 ⁄ 2 new feet, or from 5 old yards to 5 + 1 ⁄ 2 new yards. The furlong went from 600 old feet to 660 new feet, or from 200 old yards to 220 ...
A killa or acre is measured rectangularly, reckoned as an area 36 karams (198 ft) x 40 karams (220 ft) (43,560 square ft). 1 /5th of a killa or acre is known as bigha 1 Karam = 5.5 feet = 1.83; or Gaj; 1 Yard or Gaj = 36 Inch = 0.91 Metre = 3 feet; 1 Sq Yard = 9 Sq Feet; To convert Sq feet to Sq Yard = Divide by 9
The rod is useful as a unit of length because integer multiples of it can form one acre of square measure (area). The 'perfect acre' [2] is a rectangular area of 43,560 square feet, bounded by sides 660 feet (a furlong) long and 66 feet (a chain) wide (220 yards by 22 yards) or, equivalently, 40 rods by 4 rods. An acre is therefore 160 square ...
In Assam, a bigha is 14,400 square feet (1,340 m 2) or 1,600 sq yard.One bigha is divided into 5 Katha. [2] [3] Each Katha consists of 20 Lessa.Hence each Katha is 2,880 square feet (268 m 2) in area, although this may vary within different regions of Assam. 4 bighas together are further termed as a Pura.
The stadion (plural stadia, Ancient Greek: στάδιον; [1] latinized as stadium), also anglicized as stade, was an ancient Greek unit of length, consisting of 600 Ancient Greek feet . Its exact length is unknown today; historians estimate it at between 150 m and 210 m.
One Katha is equal to 1,361.25 ft 2 or 151.25 square yard or 126.46 square metre. One Bigha in UP can range from 5 to 20 Katha. In Western UP, 1 Bigha can be 5.0 Katha (756.25 square yard) or 6.6667 Katha (1,008.33 square yard). In Eastern UP, 1 Bigha is 20 Katha (3,025 square yard). 1 Katha or 1 Biswa = 20 Dhur or 20 Biswansi; 1 Dhur = 1 Biswansi
As the name suggests, an acre-foot is defined as the volume of one acre of surface area to a depth of one foot.. Since an acre is defined as a chain by a furlong (i.e. 66 ft × 660 ft or 20.12 m × 201.17 m), an acre-foot is 43,560 cubic feet (1,233.5 m 3).
