A square hectometer (often abbreviated as hm²) is a unit of area in the International System of Units (SI). It represents a square with sides that each measure 100 meters (10,000 centimeters) in length.
One square hectometer is equal to 10,000 square meters (m²) because each side of the square is 100 meters long, and when you square that length, you get 10,000 square meters.
To put it in perspective, a square hectometer is equivalent to 0.01 square kilometers (km²) because 1 square kilometer is equal to 100 hectares.
Square hectometers are not as commonly used as some other units of area, but they can be helpful for measuring large land areas, especially in some scientific and land management contexts.
A square foot (sq ft or ft²) is a unit of area commonly used in the United States and some other countries that use the imperial system of measurements. It is defined as the area of a square with sides that each measure one foot (12 inches) in length.
In terms of square meters, one square foot is approximately equal to 0.092903 square meters.
Square feet are frequently used to measure the area of rooms in houses, apartments, and other real estate properties. They are also used for various purposes in construction, architecture, and interior design.
