Check out @kentai.haven on TikTok. The 18-year-old Kenyon Lee uses a mixture of algebra, geometry, and calculus to find out how tall someone is. While he has not reveled his formula to finding someone's height he has given us the ingredients by using a mixture of linear algebra, geometry, calculus, some statistics, and basic rules about human anatomy.

The main inspiration came from the "Golden Ratio". Take a look at an example on the Fibonacci sequence on our national Facebook page.
