Question

Solving steps and answer!

Answer 1

162 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the Body surface are of a patient is given by the formula;

BSA = (√wh)/60

Where;

w is weight in kg

h is height in cm

We ware now given that;

w = 50 kg

BSA = 1.5

Thus;

1.5 = (√50h)/60

Multiply both sides by 60 to get;

90 = (√50h)

Square both sides to get;

90² = 50h

h = 90²/50

h = 162 cm
