A combination tape measure and straight edge apparatus includes a first straight edge segment which includes an outer edge and an inner edge which includes first hinge members. A tape measure assembly support unit includes second hinge members that engage the first hinge members. A tape measure assembly is provided, and a connector is provided for attaching the tape measure assembly to the tape measure assembly support unit. The second hinge members of the tape measure assembly support unit permit the tape measure assembly support unit and the attached tape measure assembly to be rotated around the first hinge members so that the tape measure assembly can selectively be moved to and from a storage orientation and a plurality of in-use orientations. A second straight edge segment and a third straight edge segment form an isosceles right triangle along with the first straight edge segment. The tape measure assembly support unit includes riser members which support the second hinge members. A support floor supports the riser members which extend downward therefrom. The bottom of the tape measure assembly rests upon the support floor. A first standing wall and a second standing wall are connected to the support floor and extend upward therefrom. The tape measure assembly is connected to the first standing wall. A lock tab support extends upward from the second standing wall, and a pair of lock tabs on the lock tab support engage inside locking portions of the respective second and third straight edge segments.
