Do you measure from the front or back of the rim when measuring for the foul and three-point lines?
When shooting free throws, the distance is measured from the foul line to the base of the backboard. In the case of 3-pointers, the shortest distance is measured...depending on where the ball is shot from. If you shoot from the corner, the distance is measured to the side of the rim. If you shoot from the top of the 3 point arc, the distance is measured to the front of the rim.

No matter what unit of measure a measuring tape uses primarily, there is a simple method for interpreting the lines on the board.

A caliper, specifically a vernier caliper, can be used to measure the diameter or thickness of a curved object by gently gripping and measuring across the curve.
