What is a circular inch used for?

A circular inch expresses the cross-sectional area of a circle with a one-inch diameter, commonly used in electrical engineering for round conductors.

Where is the cuerda mainly utilized?

The cuerda is a traditional land measurement unit predominantly used in Puerto Rico and parts of the Caribbean for property and agricultural areas.

Why are conversions from circular inch to cuerda resulting in very small numbers?

Because circular inch measures small cross-sectional areas while cuerda measures large land areas, conversions produce very small decimal values.
