what is the lenght and width of the basketball court?
405798
(m)\n\nLength of a basketball court\n94 feet (1128 inches)\nNote: Many high school and college courts are 84 feet.\n\nWidth of a basketball court\n50 feet (600 inches)\n\nSize of a basketball backboard\nWidth: 6 feet (72 inches)\nHeight: 3.5 feet (42 inches)\n\nSize of a basketball rim\nThe diameter of the rim is 18 inches\nThe top of the rim should be exactly 10 feet (120 inches) off the ground\n\nDistance from the backboard to the back of the rim\n6 inches\nNote: In other words, the front of the rim is 24 inches from the backboard (18 inches of which is the rim, and the other 6 inches the flat metal piece connecting the rim to backboard)\n\nDistance from the free throw line to the backboard\n15 feet (180 inches) from the backboard\nNote: Due to the fact that the rim protrudes forward from the backboard, the actual distance from the free throw line to the front of the rim is just 13 feet (not including the elevation factor)\n\nSize of the key\n19 feet (228 inches) from the baseline out of bounds line to the free throw line\n12 feet (144 inches) in width, across the lane\n\nThe basketball 3 point line\nIt's important to note that the 3 point arc is not the same distance from the center of the rim at all spots. This results from the fact that on the baseline, the 3 point arc begins with a straight line, before starting its curve. Once the curve begins, the distance stays consistent all the way around the arc.\n   For the college and high school 3 point arc, there is a straight line of 5.25 feet (63 inches) that runs until the arc begins. For the NBA 3 point line, there is a straight line of just over 14 feet (approximately 169 inches) before the 3 point arc begins.\n   Once the 3 point arc begins, the college and high school 3 point arc is 19.75 feet (19 feet 9 inches, or 237 inches).\n   The NBA distance is 23.75 feet (23 feet, 9 inches, or 285 inches). However, on the baselines, with a line drawn directly from the center of the rim to the sideline, the NBA distance is 22 feet (264 inches).\n\nThe markings around the key\nThe blocks are exactly 12 inches in width, and 8 inches deep. The other three tabs on each side of the lane are two inches in width, and 8 inches deep. The distance between the baseline and the block is exactly 7 feet. The distance from the end of the block to the first line is 3 feet. Each additional line is another 3 feet (36 inches) away from the end of the previous line. However, with each line being 2 inches in width, the distance from the beginning of the first block to the beginning of the following line block is 38 inches.\n\nThe circle above the key\nThe radius of the half circle above the key is 6 feet (72 inches). The diameter is obviously equal to the width of the key (or the length of the free throw line), 12 feet (144 inches). \n\nThe NBA charge line\nThe new NBA charge line (in the NBA, players must be outside this arc to take a charge) has a radius of 4 feet (48 inches). The radius' origin is directly under the center of the rim. The arc stops at a point even with the center of the rim.

The rim is at 10 feet. \nThe arena itself will vary from court to court. The average will be about 40 feet for the lighting trusses, the top beams will be about ten feet higher for a typical arena.

The free throw line is 15 feet from the plane of the backboard. From the direct center of the hoop the line would be 13 feet 9 inches. These are stats from NBA.com

Lawn Tennis Dimensions\n\nThe court is 78 feet (23.77 m) long, and its width is 27 feet (8.23 m) for singles matches and 36 feet (10.97 m) for doubles matches. Additional clear space around the court is required in order for players to reach overrun balls. A net is stretched across the full width of the court, parallel with the baselines, dividing it into two equal ends. The net is 3 feet 6 inches (1.07 m) high at the posts, and 3 feet (914 mm) high in the center.\n\nBasketball Dimensions\n\nThe men's ball's circumference is about 30 inches (76 cm) and weighs about 1 lb 5 oz (600 g). The women's ball's circumference is about 29 inches (73 cm) and weighs about 1 lb 3 oz (540 g). A regulation basketball court in international games is 28 by 15 meters (approx. 92 by 49 ft) and in the NBA is 94 by 50 feet (29 by 15 m). Most courts are made of wood.\n\nA cast-iron basket with net and backboard hang over each end of the court. At almost all levels of competition, the top of the rim is exactly 10 feet (3.05 m) above the court and 4 feet (1.2 m) inside the endline. While variation is possible in the dimensions of the court and backboard, it is considered important for the basket to be the correct height; a rim that is off by but a few inches can have an adverse effect on shooting.\n\nVolleyball Dimensions\n\nThe game is played on volleyball courts 18 metres long and 9 metres wide, divided into two 9 x 9 metre "team courts" by a one-metre wide net placed such that its highest point is 2.43 metres above the ground in men's competition, and 2.24 metres for women's competition (these heights are varied for veterans and junior competitions). There is a line 3 metres from and parallel to the net in each team court termed the "attack line". This "3 metre" line divides the court into "back row" and "front row" areas. These are in turn divided into 3 areas each: these are numbered as follows, starting from area "1", which is the position of the serving player\n   \n          positions \n             4  3  2 \n             5  6  1
