Yards

A yard (symbol: yd) is a unit of length commonly used in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada. One yard is equal to 0.9144 meters.

The yard originated from various units used in medieval England. Its current definition is based on the international agreement of 1959, which standardized it to exactly 0.9144 meters.

Yards are often used to measure distances in sports fields, textiles, and land. Despite the global shift to the metric system, the yard remains in use in these countries.

Chains

A chain is a unit of length used primarily in land surveying and agriculture. One chain is equivalent to 66 feet or approximately 20.1168 meters.

The chain is defined as 66 feet, which is historically based on the length of a chain used in surveying practices and land measurement.

Chains are commonly used in land surveying for measuring distances, particularly in the United States and the United Kingdom. The unit is useful for tasks such as plotting and dividing land and has historical significance in the development of surveying techniques.
