Unit Definition (hacienda)
The Hacienda is a large traditional unit of land area in Mexico and the southwestern U.S. The word also refers to a large estate, ranch, or plantation. As a unit, it equals 5 square leguas or 125 million square varas. Using the Texas definition of the vara, this would be about 8960 hectares or 22 140 acres (34.59 square miles). Using the shorter Mexican vara, it would be about 8778 hectares or 21 690 acres.

Unit Definition (are)
The are is a unit of area equal to 100 square meters. The word is pronounced the same as "air". Being the area of a square 10 meters on each side, the are is a little large for measuring areas indoors and a little small for measuring areas outdoors. As a result, the are is not used as often as its multiple, the hectare (ha). One are is approximately 1076.3910 square feet, 119.5990 square yards, or 0.02471 acre.
