Question 943500: Hello. Hope you can help.
I have a flag which has a width (for this I refer to the side that runs along the flag pole) of 2 meters but I am trying to find the correct length of the flag ( I refer to the part of the flag which is free to move ) Hope this makes sense.... if you could give the correct rectangle measurements.
I cannot at this moment remove the flag to undertake the measurements!
Thanks, Mark

What sort of flag?
If it's a US flag, the ratio is 1.9:1
2 meters high --> 3.8 meters length.
