The definitions

Area units are lengths squared, so their factors are the squares of the length factors: a foot is 0.3048 m, so a square foot is exactly 0.09290304 m², and a square meter is about 10.764 square feet. That’s why a meter is only 3.28 feet but a square meter is 10.76 square feet.

For land, an acre is 43,560 square feet (exactly 4,046.8564224 m²) and a hectare is 10,000 m² (about 2.471 acres). A square mile is 640 acres. A square kilometer is 100 hectares.
