Solution

The correct options are
A To measure the atmospheric pressure
B To forecasting weather
C To measure heights
Barometers are used not only to measure atmospheric pressure at a place, but detecting small changes in it as well. So, they are used to predict short-term changes in the weather, and also as altimeters, which can measure the altitude/height of a place from the sea level.
