The square meter (m²) is the fundamental unit of area in the metric system. It's used worldwide for measuring rooms (a parking space is ~12 m²), construction projects, and land plots. A standard badminton court is about 81.8 m², while a tennis court is approximately 260 m² including the alleys. The are (100 m²) is primarily used in European land measurement. A small urban garden might be 2-5 ares, while a modest house plot could be 10 ares. Though less common today, it still appears in some property documents and agricultural contexts.
To convert between Square Meter (m²) and Are (a), use the following formulas:
1 Square Meter (m²) = 0.01 Are (a)
1 Are (a) = 100 Square Meter (m²)
1 m² = 1 * 0.01 a = 0.01 a
5 m² = 5 * 0.01 a = 0.05 a
10 m² = 10 * 0.01 a = 0.1 a
50 m² = 50 * 0.01 a = 0.5 a
100 m² = 100 * 0.01 a = 1 a
| Square Meter (m²) | Are (a) |
|---|---|
| 1 m² | 0.01 a |
| 5 m² | 0.05 a |
| 10 m² | 0.1 a |
| 20 m² | 0.2 a |
| 50 m² | 0.5 a |
| 100 m² | 1 a |
