The foot (pl. feet; abbreviation: ft; symbol: â², the prime symbol) is a unit of length in the imperial and US customary systems of measurement. Since 1959, both units have been defined by international agreement as equivalent to 0.3048 meters exactly. In both systems, the foot comprises 12 inches and three feet compose a yard.
There are also square feet, a unit of area, and there are many who find it very confusing to differentiate between a linear foot and square foot. The word linear means length, and so linear foot merely describes one foot long object. If I say, my friend is a six footer, I merely mean to describe his height in feet.
