The square inch (in²) is commonly used in the United States for small surface measurements. A standard post-it note is about 6 in², while a sheet of letter-sized paper is 93.5 in². This unit is prevalent in printing, crafts, and engineering drawings. The square meter (m²) is the fundamental unit of area in the metric system. It's used worldwide for measuring rooms (a parking space is ~12 m²), construction projects, and land plots. A standard badminton court is about 81.8 m², while a tennis court is approximately 260 m² including the alleys.
To convert between Square Inch (in²) and Square Meter (m²), use the following formulas:
1 Square Inch (in²) = 0.00064516 Square Meter (m²)
1 Square Meter (m²) = 1550.0031000062002 Square Inch (in²)
1 in² = 1 * 0.00064516 m² = 0.00064516 m²
10 in² = 10 * 0.00064516 m² = 0.0064516 m²
50 in² = 50 * 0.00064516 m² = 0.032258 m²
100 in² = 100 * 0.00064516 m² = 0.064516 m²
500 in² = 500 * 0.00064516 m² = 0.32258 m²
