Exactly. It says 90 feet square. This supports my point that square feet refers to area and feet square is the length of a side.But it does not say that the area is 90 ft square.I did...and gave two examples supporting my point. Here's a third example: 217baseballYes, there is.One says square feet and the other feet square, there is no difference.
Look up the definition of square feet and feet square then...
The problem given is that a baseball diamond is 90 ft square, and the accompanying diagram shows the first baseline as 90 ft long.
There's no error. Perhaps it's more of a British use, or an archaic use, but X feet square has the meaning of a square with each side X units long.Seems like a grammerical error is causing multiple interpretations.
