40. Rule of Thirds The rule states that an image should be imagined as divided into nine equal parts by two equally-spaced horizontal lines and two equally-spaced vertical lines, and that important compositional elements should be placed along these lines or their intersections.

42. 29. How many points are in an inch? • 48 • 72 • 12 • 6 A point is a unit of measurement that is the standard for measuring type and is used for measuring depth of printing. One point is equal to .013836 of an inch and 72 points are approximately 1 inch. For all practical type measurement purposes we round 72 points to 1 inch. When we take spacing above and below a line of type into consideration, when set at 72 points that line of type will take up approximately an inch of vertical space.

43. 30. How many picas are in an inch? • 48 • 72 • 12 • 6 There are 6 picas in 1 inchA pica is a typesetting unit of measurement commonly used for measuring lines of type. One pica is 12 points and is approximately 1/6 of an inch. More precisely a pica is .166 inch or 4.2154 millimeters and six picas equals .9957 inches but for most graphic design and desktop publishing purposes six picas are rounded up to one inch.
