Would you use a 10cm strip to measure a brontosaurus?

No, because a Brontosaurus (technically, it is called Apatosaurus) is very large. If I tried to measure an Apatosaurus with a 10 cm strip, it would not only take a long time, but I could have a significant error in measurement, because every time I moved the strip, there would be a small margin of error, and I'd have to move the strip hundreds of times. I might, however, use the strip to create a strip of a few meters, and then I could use that.
