(1) What measurement do you use to masure a perimeter? You measure the Circumference = 2 pi x r(adius). It's length is given in units of measurement that you are using. Common units of measurement are; in, ft, cm, m

(2) Which of the metric units is the shortest?
A metric unit is alway again divisble by 10, so there is no theoretical smallest measurement, when measuring wavelengths it is not uncommon to see nano-meters 10^-9 meters (.000000001 meters)

practical measurement on a ruler is mm (milli-meters) which 1/10 of a cm, or 1/100 of a meter

(3) What does a inch measures?

One inch is a predetermined amount of length in the British measurement system, which when compared to a cm = 2.54 cm. Normally broken into smaller increments of 1/2, 1/4, 1/8 and so on.

(4) How long is a tooth brush?

Depends on the toothbrush manufacturer and the age of the person it is intended for. My electric toothbrush is 8 7/8"

(5) What is the height of a classroom door?

Probably around 80" to 81" which is a normal door height. If this is a class assignment, you are going to have to measure your classroom door for a correct answer.

1. Perimeter is the distance around a figure say square, triangle, rectangle etc. To measure the perimeter, you just add the lengths of the sides.
The units of perimeter are mm, cm, m, km
2 and 3. An inch measured as 1/16".
4. Measure it with a tape with unit CM
5. Do the same as above and meaure it with CM or meter or ft

There are some really damn small metric units. Depends on what you mean.

1-Just use length... you can measure in meters, inches, or whatever you want.
2-A nanometer is 1^-9 meters. So that's pretty damn small.
3-An inch measures a lot of things.... length, mostly.

4, 5-DO IT YOURSELF. Toothbrushes are different sizes, so are doors. My guess is this is a class project, so you really just have to take a ruler out and measure it yourself. Also, roughly 39 inches = 1 meter.
