∙ 13y agoThe measurement of length, width, and height finds the volume of a cube or rectangular prism.
20 x 20 is only two dimensions, like length and width, but no height, so it wouldn't be able hold any gallons. You have to add the height measurement, and then the measuring distance. Perhaps it is 20 x 20 x 5, but is that inches or feet or cm? The measuring distance is needed to calculate how large the container is.
Both height and length are linear measurements. The units of measure are the same. Height -- not heighth -- is synonymous with altitude, and can be thought of as the distance above the ground, as in the height of a skyscraper or the height of a tall tree (or any tree, for that matter).
Height in a cuboid is the measurement of the vertical distance between the top and bottom faces of the shape. It can also be referred to as the measurement of the length of one of the sides of the cuboid that has its opposite sides as bases.

Those measurements are forms of spatial measurements.

Length, width, and height are forms of linear measurement, while distance is also a form of linear measurement but refers to the space between two points. Together, they help describe the physical dimensions or placement of objects in space.

An inch is a type of measurement that is used to measure length. Inches are commonly used when measuring height, a person's waist size, and certain pieces of jewelry.
A kilogram is bigger than a meter. A kilogram is a unit of mass, measuring the amount of matter in an object, while a meter is a unit of length, measuring distance.
When measuring the distance around a closet, use linear feet to calculate the total length of the closet perimeter. Linear feet is a standard unit of measurement for distances.
For measuring length/distance, meter is used. Other units are km / cm/ mm.
What is the question?
The most common measurement device for distance and length is a tape measure, which consists of a long flexible strip marked with units of length. Other measurement devices include rulers, yardsticks, measuring wheels, and laser distance measurers.
