1. You are a detective assigned to work on the robbery of your local grocery store. The surveillance film shows the suspect standing next to the check out counter. Describe a method that you could use for finding out the actual height of your suspect. (Hint: Think about scale models.)

Say you see him standing next to something in the cameras so if you see if he’s as tall as that object then measure it to see and if you see that he is taller add/subtract from the height of that suspect and then you can predict from there how tall he may be ( just so you know I’m a newbie at this so I may not help ) sorry for the inconvenience if I get it wrong
