As part of our unit on measurement we applied our knowledge of metres, centimetres and millimetres to investigate one of Leonardo De Vinci's theories regarding the ideal proportions of the human figure. We discovered that the majority of us are just off the ratio of 1. Following discussion we attributed this to a number of possibilities; we are still growing so may not be 'balanced' yet, our measurements may not have been accurate enough- we talked about our methods here and discovered significant variation in technique! Or maybe....Leonardo's theory doesn't hold up in relation to modern man?
