About metres and feet
The metre is the base unit of length in the metric system, originally intended as one ten-millionth of the distance from the equator to the North Pole and now defined by the speed of light.
The foot remains standard in the United States for height, room dimensions and construction, and internationally in aviation, where altitude is still given in feet almost everywhere.
