Test Your Knowledge About Heights And Distances
Height measures the vertical distance of an objects by determining how tall it is. On the other hand, a distance is the numerical measurement of how far apart an object or objects are. Although the two terms can be confusing sometimes, do you think you spot the differences between the two? Take our quiz and find out.
