What is the average height of a gray wolf?
The average height of a wolf is anywhere between 26 and 32 in. (or 66 to 81 cm) at the shoulder.
The height of a boy has many variables. The variables that determine height of a boy include age, and body structure.
What unit of measure you would you use to measure the height of a classroom door?
Typical height is 80 inches.
How do you figure the square footage of a room?
measure the length and width of room then multiply example:
12 x 12 = 144 square feet
one gallon is approx. 300 sq. ft. but that's one coat
How much should you be able to paint in one hour
The method above will only get you the measurements for floor covering! Not the total square footage of the wall surfaces! What happens if the wall are 8 ft high? how about 12 ft high? This changes the square footage of the room!
Measure the height and width of one wall and multiply together.
Repeat for each wall.
All the totals from each wall together.
A room 12'x10' with 8 ft ceilings would be:
2 walls 8' x 12' = 96sq ft each wall x 2 = 192 sq ft
2 walls 8' x 10' = 80 sq ft each wall x 2 = 160 sq ft.
Add totals together 192 + 160 = 352 sq ft.
(If the ceiling is being painted, add the length and width of the ceiling, multiply together, then add to the total from the walls.
The areas of doors and windows could be subtracted from the total since you do not usually paint these areas with the same paint.
As you can see, 1 gallon of paint will not cover it!
How tall will i be I am 14 year old and 5ft 2?

What is the height of the smallest mountain in Greece?
Mount Wycheproof, north-western Victoria, Australia, rises a majestic 43 metres (140 ft) above the surrounding countryside.
The Aboriginal "witchi-poorp" (grass on a hill) is probably a more accurate description.
Some hundred-plus kilometres to the south, Mount Cotterell, at almost 100 metres, is a giant amoug grassy hills.
The answers above are interesting, but incorrect. The smallest mountain would be one which is exactly 1,000 meters high. This is the scientific definition of a mountain, equivalent to just over 3,300 feet.

What is the average weight and height of a three year old?
An 8 year-old, according to the BMI calculator, should weigh between 48 and 63 pounds. So that averages to about 55 pounds.
First of all, "midget" is a tasteless, derogatory term under any circumstances, much like using the "n....." word. Many people under 4' -10" prefer not to be labeled, but between themselves use the terms "dwarf" and "little person." Second, to say that anyone over 4'10" is "normal" and under that is "dwarf" is completely erroneous. You have to consider the cause of the dwarfism; there are more than 300 causes, not all of which are obvious to the untrained eye. Those little people whose dwarfism is "proportionate" may just appear to be extremely short, but even with no other physical characteristics, you'd have to consider how that height affects normal life. Driving - does a little person have to sit on a stack of books to be high enough to see over the dash to drive, and if you do that, can they reach the pedals on the floor? Height of cabinets and counters, the height of door knobs on typical entry and exit doors, window locks, and the list goes on. Many women who are proportionately short have Turner's Syndrome requiring a DNA test for diagnosis which is expensive and out of reach for a person who can't find a job and thus insurance because of their height, etc. The list goes on, and all of the tests to determine dwarfism and the specific type, MRIs and such, are ridiculously expensive and out of reach for anyone without insurance coverage. Finally, I've seen Wayne Carini's height listed as both 5'-4" (five feet four inches) and 54" (fifty four inches, or four feet six inches.). As an aside, it would be so helpful if a standard for dimensions could be established for common use. The one I use, i.e. 5'-4", is particular to architectural drawings but also the clearest, IMO, for every standard usage. One is a very short man, and one is a pretty short male dwarf, and I specify because some of the standards defining dwarfism legally specify differing heights for males and females because in almost all cultures, men are taller than women. It would be helpful to have an absolute source on Mr. Carini's height, but having watched his show(s) for some time using some basic "go-bys" for comparison, it is my opinion that Mr. Carini is a very short man and not a pretty short dwarf. They use camera angles to diminish the difference where it is possible, but many times he is standing for a length of time with the tallest man in the room and there's no covering all of that with camera angles. I've seen him stand next to women with a straight on camera and he appears to be a little shorter than most of the women, but not all. To me, this says 5'-4" or a very short man. If you add to those factors that Mr. Carini, despite the Sicilian roots indicated by his last name, is of strong Irish extraction (fair skin, brilliant blue eyes, etc...) and that heritage does tend to produce shorter than average men and I think you have your answer. But only ever the real one if answered by Wayne Carini. Late addendum: someone expressed the concern that if the government began granting disability payments for little people that we might then have to extend disability benefits for tall people. To some degree, that is already the case. Individuals who suffer from "gigantism" or Marfan's Syndrome are equally disabled. Marfan's Syndrome is the result of a growth or other failure of the pituitary gland, going untreated with a non-ending flood of growth hormone even well into adulthood. It is fairly rare; the tallest woman and the tallest man in the world both have Marfan's. One Asian Marfan's sufferer is 7'-8" tall. For a taste of that life, consider that door heights are 6'-8" and standard ceiling heights are 8'-0". No standard furniture is comfortable, chairs will not support you anyway. No bed is long enough. No counters are high enough, bathroom or kitchen. It would literally be like living out your adult life in the playhouse your dad built for you when you were four. No car high enough to sit in or long enough for your legs if you wanted to drive. No bicycle. No trip to the hospital; no beds long enough and no wheelchairs big enough. Even a trip to the dentist is plagued with complications. Sounds like a disability to me.
How long is the average female finger?
The average female finger length can vary, but typically it ranges from about 6 to 7 inches (15 to 18 centimeters) for the entire hand, with individual finger lengths averaging around 3 to 4 inches (7.5 to 10 centimeters) for the index and middle fingers. Factors such as genetics and ethnicity can influence these measurements.
I am 15 years old and 165cm. Am I too tall for my age?
Depends.
If you're a girl. Then yes. 165 cm is pretty tall for a 15 year old girl.
If you're a guy. Then no. 165cm is pretty short for a 15 year old guy.
However, for guys, there are still a 3 to 4 more years to grow. Some guys still grow around their early 20s.
Just eat healthily with lots of fruit and vegetables!
Drink lots of water!

He was 40 inches tall. THIS CURRENT ANSWER IS NOT CORRECT... A year later, Barnum took young Stratton on a tour of http://www.answers.com/topic/europe making him an international celebrity.http://www.answers.com/topic/general-tom-thumb#cite_note-passport-1 Stratton appeared twice before http://www.answers.com/topic/queen-victoria. He also met the three-year-old http://www.answers.com/topic/prince-of-wales, who would become http://www.answers.com/topic/edward-vii-of-the-united-kingdom. The tour was a huge success, with crowds mobbing him wherever he went; it made vast amounts[not specific enough to verify] of money for both Barnum and Stratton's family. In 1847 he started to grow for the first time since the first few months of his life, but with extreme slowness. In January 1851 Stratton stood exactly 2 feet 5 inches (74 cm) tall. On his 18th birthday, he was measured at 2 feet 8.5 inches (83 cm) tall. Stratton became a http://www.answers.com/topic/freemasonry on October 1, 1862.

What is the average height of a 4 years old?
Don't forget that these measurements are AVERAGE. Half of children will be taller than this and half will be shorter. (This is the definition of median, not AVERAGE!)
Children usually take after their parents so tall parents will have tall children, small parents will have small children.
Even more importantly is how tall the child is in comparison with how tall it was when younger. Most children who are 3'3" at 4 will be about 4'1" at 8. If they are significantly shorter or taller than the line they were on then they may have a problem.

Height can be represented by a lot of things. For example, a person's height can be 60 inches or 5 feet.

How tall is 6 foot 3 inches in centimeters?
You would not use it at all because the correct term is, "six FEET three inches."
The average height of a human being is five feet and five inches.
