| 1 scots pole | = | 24 cun.lk. | ||
| 1 scots chain | = | 96 cun.lk. |
| 1 scots furlong | = | 10 scots ch. | (1 scot fu. = 40 scot po. = 125 fth. = 250 yd. = 750 ft.) |

| 1 scots rood | = | 23,040 cun.sq.lk. |
| 1 scots acre | = | 10 scots sq.ch. | (1 scots acre = 4 scots po. x 40 scots po.) |
| 1 scots ml. | = | 60 right angle 3 x 4 x 5 triangles, 4 unit (the 100 ft.) sides laid end to end |
| 60 scots ml. per hr. | = | 100 ft. per sec. |
| 1 scots (ulstan) ml. | = | 6000' | (80 x 75' = 6000')(60 x 100' = 6000')(48 x 125' = 6000') |
| 25' | = | 1 scots ch. right angle triangle (18.75' x 25' x 31.25') perpendicular |
| 6000' | = | 240 scots ch. right angle triangle (18.75' x 25' x 31.25') perpendiculars |
| 56,250 sq.' | = | 240 scots ch. right angle triangle (18.75' x 25' x 31.25') areas |
| 56,250 sq.' | = | 1 scots acre |
| 14,062 1/2 sq.' | = | 60 scots ch. right angle triangle (18.75' x 25' x 31.25') areas |
| 14,062 1/2 sq.' | = | 1 scots rood |
| 1 scots sq. mile | = | 640 scots acres | (6400 scots sq.ch.) |
| • |
| 96 cun.lk. | = | 18 3/4 ft. + 25 ft. + 31 1/4 ft. | (75 ft.) (1 scots ch.) |
| 96 cun.lk. | = | 1 scots po. + 1 1/3 scots po. + 1 2/3 scots po. | (4 scots po.) |
| 1 scot (ulstan) po. | = | 24 cun.lk. | (18 3/4 ft.) |
| 96 cun.lk. | = | 24 cun.lk. + 32 cun.lk. + 40 cun.lk. | (25 yd.) (12 1/2 fth.) |
| 96 cun.lk. | = | 3x8 cun.lk. + 4x8 cun.lk. + 5x8 cun.lk. = 1 scots ch. | (r/angle 3 x 4 x 5 triangle) |
| 7680 cun.lk. | = | 60 x 4 x 4 x 8 cun.lk. | (1 scots ml.) |
| 7680 cun.lk. | = | 60 x 4 x 1 1/3 scots po. | (320 scots po.) |
| 7680 cun.lk. | = | 60 x 4 x 25 ft. | (6000 ft.) |
| 12 in. | = | 3 in. + 4 in. + 5 in. | (1 ft.) |
| 72000 in. | = | 60 x 300 x 4 in. | (1 scots ml.) |
