The correct answer is: to stay flexible between measured points.Tape measures are curved to stay flexible between measured points. This curvature allows the tape to bend and conform to the shape of the object being measured, providing a more accurate measurement. The curve also helps the tape to retract back into its case after being extended, making it easier to store and transport.
