Standards of MeasurementStandards of Measurement
When we measure, we use a measuring tool to When we measure, we use a measuring tool to compare some dimension of an object to a standard.compare some dimension of an object to a standard.
For example, at one time the For example, at one time the standard for length was the standard for length was the king’s foot. What are some king’s foot. What are some
problems with this standard?problems with this standard?
