Emmilene,

"Ten square miles" is not the same as
"Ten miles square".  The latter is a 
square with ten linear miles on each
side.  The former is a square with 
3.162277 linear miles on each side.
3.162277 x 3.162277 = 10.000.

The District of Columbia was intended
to be ten miles square (a square with
ten miles on each side), but the area
south of the Potomac was retroceded back
to Virginia, when Congress lost interest
in the low-lying swamps there.  Arlington
Cemetery is now in that area.

It also has legislating power over
the territory or other property 
belonging to the United States,
pursuant to 4:3:2 (e.g. Guam,
Virgin Islands, etc.)

See "The Federal Zone" for details.
