1 ft is not an area, it's a distance or length.

Is it possible to find a circle whose circumference is 132 ft. and whose area is less than 1 ft?
-------
C = pi*d
d = 132/pi
------
radius = 66/pi
-----
If the area is less than 1 ft^2
pi(r^2) < 1
---
r^2 < 1/pi
----
r < sqrt(1/pi)
----
radius < 0.318
