It depends on what information you have. You could use a ruler or tape measure.

Or, if the information is given in the foorm of the coordinates of the end points you could find the length as follows: if the coordinates of the two end points are (a,b) and (c,d) then the length is

sqrt[(a - c)2 + (b - d)2]

One tenth of a line is 5 and a half cm What is the line's total length?

If one tenth of a line is 5 and a half cm, then the total length of the line would be 10 times that amount, which is 55 cm. This is because one tenth represents 1/10th of the total length, so to find the total length, you would need to multiply by 10. Therefore, the line's total length is 55 cm.
