The chord of a wing is measured from?

Top to bottom
Leading edge to trailing edge
Root to tip
Spanwise

The correct answer is: Leading edge to trailing edge

The chord of a wing is measured from the leading edge to the trailing edge. This measurement helps determine the wing's aerodynamic properties and performance characteristics. Measuring from the top to the bottom (Choice A) or root to tip (Choice C) would not provide an accurate representation of the wing's chord length. Spanwise (Choice D) refers to the direction perpendicular to the airflow along the wingspan, not the measurement of the chord itself.
