Activity 3 - Skeleton measurements

My bone measurements(in cm) :

Humerus- 28.0
Radius- 24.0
Femur- 52.0
Tibia- 32.0

Theoretical height(in cm) :

Humerus- 151.7
Radius- 164.6
Femur- 179.0
Tibia- 154.7

Simon's measurements(in cm) :

Humerus- 27.0
Radius- 22.0
Femur- 40.0
Tibia- 35.0

Theoretical height(in cm) :

Humerus- 148.4
Radius- 157.9
Femur- 156.5
Tibia- 161.8

Reasons for discrepancies

1. Some people have a longer specific body part, thus, it is difficult to accurately measure his/her height.

2. The measuring tape might be faulty.



My golden ratio is 1.64 corrected to 3 sf. ( Φ Golden Ratio= 1.618 033 988 7...)

The case of the middle aged woman

Annie told Sherlock Holmes that she saw "a shadow" and was sure that it was the grizzly bear. However, the shadows of a human being and a bear are different and Annie was able to differentiate that Bill's shadow was not of a grizzly bear. Thus, Holmes was sure that Annie murdered Bill.
