How many miles across is the State of Texas from east to west?

Answer 1

The state of Texas has a complex shape, so the north-south "length" of the state depends on where and how you measure it. The longest generally-southward straight-line path you can take through Texas is about 806.2 miles. This would be a line in the SSE direction starting from the westernmost corner of the northern Texas "handle" and extending to Texas' southernmost tip. But straightline, due-south distances through Texas are different everywhere, at every different longitude. Here are some examples. * From the center of the northern "handle" straight south to the border: 463.3 miles. * From the right edge of the northern "handle" straight south to the border: 583.7 miles. * From about the middle of the northern border with Oklahoma straight south to the southern tip: 549.4 miles. * From north to south along the eastern border: 248.0 miles.

Answer 2

The distance is straight path from one place to another place. There might be slight difference between the actual distance and the above mentioned distance because of the route chosen.The distance between the above mentioned places is 895.05 miles approximately.

Answer 3

Interstate 10 (I 10), which goes east and west across Texas is approximately 879 miles long. And since there are 5,280 feet in a mile, you multiply 879 miles x 5,280 feet, which = 4,641,120 (4 million six hundred forty one thousand one hundred twenty feet) from east Texas to west Texas.

Answer 4

895 miles from the border of New Mexico on I-10 to the border of Louisiana on I-10 just outside of Orange.

Answer 5

1000 miles
