Section
A section is a land measurement unit used in the United States Public Land Survey System (PLSS). It refers to a square area that is 1 mile on each side, covering:
1 square mile
640 acres
Approximately 2.59 square kilometers
Sections are the basic units within a township (which contains 36 sections) and are commonly used for legal land descriptions and property boundaries.
Circular Inch
A circular inch is a unit of area used primarily in engineering and wire gauge measurements. It represents the area of a circle with a diameter of one inch.
Formula: Area = π × (radius)²
Since the radius is half an inch,
Area = π × (0.5 in)² = π × 0.25 in² ≈ 0.7854 square inches (in²).
Circular inches are often used to specify cross-sectional areas of wires or pipes.
