I've read it's called a Tang. lol.
I call it a Grab, ironically.
Not sure if that is a legit question.
I used to use duct tape and tape the end hook of the tape measure blade to the end of the pipe and then mark the length I needed for many years. I recently found a tape measure with a special hook that made my life easier and now I complete projects faster. its called pipe friendly tape measure made by tekforce. I give them two thumbs up for this great invention.
Yes you can by standing on top of the cliff and stand on the end of the tape measure and throw the heavy end down.

Small physical size when tape is rolled up - most are 5 meters or more long, 5 meters of cord is a big pile. A tape measure is stiff, a cord will stretch so accuracy is better, you can hook the end of a tape measure over it, walk all the way to the end to measure, a cord you would have to fit it (nail/tape) at one end first, so ease of use.
To measure (for example) a 2 metre long plank of wood: Place the tang at one end of the plank, stretch out the tape along the plank's length, read off the measurement at the other end of the plank. In our example, the tape should read 2 metres.
Things needed - measuring tape and a book Place book on ur head, end of measuring tape on your toe, other end should be touching the book on your head. Now, take the reading appropriately.
To use a tape measure effectively for accurate measurements, start by ensuring the tape measure is straight and not twisted. Place the end of the tape measure at one point and extend it to the other point to be measured. Read the measurement where the tape meets the object being measured. Make sure to account for any additional length at the beginning of the tape measure.
With a handy tool called tape measure :)
It is a measuring tape.
Place the bat on the floor blade facing down. Using a measurement tape, place one side of the measuring tape on the top of the bad handle, and then measure the bat's other end at the center of the bat.
The keyword "tape measure" is 10 characters long when measured with a tape measure.
It could be length, or even distance if the length is longer that a standard tape measure.
