About Inch (in)

An imperial unit of length equal to 1/12 of a foot (25.4 millimeters exactly). Inches are the everyday US unit for body height, screen and TV diagonal sizes, paper margins, plumbing fittings (pipe diameters), and tool dimensions. The international inch was fixed at exactly 25.4 mm by the 1959 yard-and-pound agreement. Despite most global industries switching to millimeters, inches are still dominant in US manufacturing, woodworking, and consumer electronics sizing — notably the ubiquitous "55-inch TV" style spec.

About Foot (ft)

An imperial unit of length equal to 12 inches (0.3048 meters exactly). Although most countries have moved to the metric system, the foot remains the international aviation standard for altitude — flight levels are quoted in hundreds of feet worldwide — and is the primary unit in US construction blueprints, real estate listings, surveying, and everyday height measurement in the US and UK. A foot divides into 12 inches and three feet make a yard, reflecting the base-12 heritage of English measurement.
