    This document provides instructions for students to measure various body parts and compare the measurements to determine relationships between height, knee to floor distance, hand span, and head circumference. Students are asked to take their height in cm, convert it to mm and m, and compare it to 3 times their knee height, 8 times their hand span, and 3 times around their head, measuring each to determine if their height is greater than, less than, or equal to the other measurements.

    Problem of the Week

    Problem B
    Measure for Measure...

    Some body measurements have interesting relationships to other body


    measurements.
    Try the measurements below and then
    compare your results to those of your class-
    mates.
    Do you think their results will be similar?

    a) Measure your height in cm.


    b) Convert this measurement of your height into mm and m.
    c) Do you think your height is greater than, less than, or equal to 3 times the
    distance from the floor to the top of your kneecap? Measure and find out.
    d) Do you think your height is greater than, less than, or equal to 8 times the
    span of your hand? (Stretch your thumb and pinky finger as far as possible
    and measure between them to find the span of your hand.) Measure and
    find out.
    e) Do you think your height is greater than, less than, or equal to 3 times
    around your head? Measure the distance around and find out.
