Norse geometry

[edit]

...approximately 50 square metres (540 sq ft) in area and 4 metres (13 ft) long...

If one side of the house is 4 metres, the other side must be 12.5 metres in order to cover a 50 sqm area. So Erik's house is 4 metres wide, not 4 meters long. Or does the phrase hide some other error or misunderstanding? 94.191.138.121 (talk) 21:21, 11 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
