The Rod (or pole/perch) was historically used in land surveying and agriculture. Measuring exactly 16.5 feet, rods were commonly used to define property boundaries. A standard American football field is 320 rods long (including end zones). This unit still appears in some property deeds and agricultural measurements. The Inch (in) is commonly used in the United States and other countries for measuring small to medium objects. For example, a smartphone screen is around 6 inches, a standard ruler is 12 inches, and a doorway height is about 80 inches. It's widely used in carpentry, display sizes, and construction.
To convert between Rod (rd) and Inch (in), use the following formulas:
1 Rod (rd) = 198.00000000000003 Inch (in)
1 Inch (in) = 0.00505050505050505 Rod (rd)
1 rd = 1 * 198.00000000000003 in = 198.00000000000003 in
2 rd = 2 * 198.00000000000003 in = 396.00000000000006 in
5 rd = 5 * 198.00000000000003 in = 990.0000000000001 in
10 rd = 10 * 198.00000000000003 in = 1980.0000000000002 in
20 rd = 20 * 198.00000000000003 in = 3960.0000000000005 in
50 rd = 50 * 198.00000000000003 in = 9900.000000000002 in
