Een liniaal is een langwerpig meetinstrument waarlangs rechte lijnen kunnen worden getrokken, waarlangs gesneden kan worden en waarmee lengtes kunnen worden opgemeten. Aan een van de lange zijden of aan beide is een maatverdeling aangebracht. Is op de liniaal geen maatverdeling aangebracht, dan spreekt men in de wiskunde wel van een ongemerkte liniaal (soms ook wel van latje).
