What do the lines of a metric ruler mean?
Different rulers will have different increments, so we can't give a definitive answer - however - I would expect the ruler to at least mark off the centimeters with larger lines and then probably use smaller lines as millimeter increments.

When I need to get to that kind of precision I always opt for a different measuring tool such as a micrometer.
