Definition
The inch [in] is a unit of length in the imperial and United States customary systems of measurement. One inch is defined as 1/12 of a foot and is equivalent to 2.54 centimeters.
History/Origin
The inch has been used as a unit of measurement since at least the 7th century, with its origins likely in the Roman system of measurements. The inch was standardized by King Edward II of England in the 14th century as equal to three barleycorns laid end to end. In 1959, the international yard and pound agreement established the international inch as equal to 25.4 millimeters.

It is also used in the printing industry and in measuring the size of computer monitors and television screens. However, many countries, including most of Europe and Australia, use the metric system and do not use the inch as a unit of measurement.
