    Human height. Human height or stature is the distance from the bottom of the feet to the top of the head in a human body, standing erect. It is measured using a stadiometer, [1] in centimetres when using the metric system or SI system, [2][3] or feet and inches when using United States customary units or the imperial system.

  4. Four-dimensional space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-dimensional_space

    The 4-volume or hypervolume in 4D can be calculated in closed form for simple geometrical figures, such as the tesseract (s 4, for side length s) and the 4-ball (/ for radius r). Reasoning by analogy from familiar lower dimensions can be an excellent intuitive guide, but care must be exercised not to accept results that are not more rigorously ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dwarfism

    Dwarfism is a condition of people and animals marked by unusually small size or short stature. [1] In humans, it is sometimes defined as an adult height of less than 147 centimetres (4 ft 10 in), regardless of sex; the average adult height among people with dwarfism is 120 centimetres (4 ft). [2][3][4] Disproportionate dwarfism is characterized ...

    16:9. 8,294,400. 7680 × 4320. 8K UHDTV. 4320p. 33,177,600. Many of these resolutions are also used for video files that are not broadcast. These may also use other aspect ratios by cropping otherwise black bars at the top and bottom which result from cinema aspect ratios greater than 16∶9, such as 1.85 or 2.35 through 2.40 (dubbed ...

  9. Display resolution standards - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Display_resolution_standards

    The 1280 × 1024 resolution is not the standard 4:3 aspect ratio, instead it is a 5:4 aspect ratio (1.25:1 instead of 1. 3:1). A standard 4:3 monitor using this resolution will have rectangular rather than square pixels, meaning that unless the software compensates for this the picture will be distorted, causing circles to appear elliptical.
