You could use either inches or centimeters to measure the width of a sheet of paper.
A thin sheet of paper is essentially two-dimensional, with length and width. Height is very thin and can be negligible compared to length and width.
The A series paper has a height to width ratio of square root 2 to 1 (1.4142:1) A sheet of A0 has an area of one square metre. To fit the ratio its sides are 841 millimetre x 1189 millimetre. Each sheet in the series is half the size of the previous sheet; the height of A1 would be the width of A0, the width of A1 is half the height of A0, 594 mm x 841 mm. A3 has a height of 420 millimetres and a width of 297 millimetres.
To find the area, multiply the height by the width.
Because the fibers are aligned in the MD direction and consequently the sheet shrinks in the CD direction, resulting in a reduction in sheet width.
A sheet of A4 paper measures 29.7 centimetres in length and 21.0 centimetres in width. A third of this length would be 9.9 centimetres in length and 7 centimetres in width.
Width by height.A standard sheet of typing or copy paper is 8-1/2" by 11"....eight and one half inches wide and eleven inches high. A sheet of legal paper is 8-1/2" by 14".The world standard of DIN A 4 paper is:Width = 21.0 centimeters by height = 29.7 centimeters.
A sheet of paper will typically have three dimensions. There is the length, the width and the thickness of the paper which is measured in GSM. Paper comes in many sizes but A4 is probably the most popular.
It's a difference in how things are perceived. For instance, our world is three-dimensional. Imagine looking at one side of a piece of paper. That's one dimension. Now look at both sides of the paper; front and back, it's two dimensions. Now imagine the paper turns into a box. That's three dimensions. 1-length 2-width 3-height That answer is just so wrong. A line is one dimensional. It has just length no width or height. (This is an ideal line, not one that you draw since that WILL have a width - it will be as wide as your pencil point.) A sheet of paper is two dimensional (NOT 1-d as stated above). The other side of the sheet of paper is completely irrelevant. A sheet has length and width. If you hold it up, it has length and height (or width and height). Again, this is an ideal sheet of paper, since it will have a very very tiny width (or thickness). Finally, a cube (or a box), which has length, breadth and width is three dimensional.
U mean half sheet paper. u should be aware of the equation (density=mass/volume) if you know the density and the mass of the paper u find the volume.. or else collect bundle of half sheet papers, put it together and measure the "height, length and the width of it. volume=length*width*height. so u know the volume of the bundle. if there were 100 sheets in a bundle you just divide it by 100 and then you get the volume for one sheet of paper.
That depends both on the size (length, width) of the paper, and on its thickness. The paper I use for printing has 75 grams per square meter; you can base your calculations on that (convert length and width to meters, and multiply by 75 to get grams per sheet). Or use some other thickness, depending on the paper you use.Please note that a gram is not technically a unit of weight, but a unit of mass.
