Feet A foot (symbol: ft) is a unit of length used in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada. One foot is equal to 0.3048 meters.
The foot originated from various units used in ancient civilizations. Its current definition is based on the international agreement of 1959, which standardized it to exactly 0.3048 meters.
Feet are commonly used to measure height, length, and short distances. Despite the global shift to the metric system, the foot remains in use in these countries.
Handbreadth A handbreadth is a historical unit of length used to measure small distances, typically based on the width of a hand. One handbreadth is approximately equivalent to 4 inches or about 0.1016 meters.
The handbreadth is defined as the width of a person's hand, measured from the edge of the thumb to the edge of the little finger when the hand is spread out. This unit was used for practical measurements in various contexts, including textiles and construction.
Handbreadths were used in historical measurement systems for assessing lengths and dimensions where precise tools were not available. Although less common today, the unit provides historical context for traditional measurement practices and everyday use in different cultures.
