My Proportions Project

In math, we worked on a proportions project. One of the choices was to scale a cartoon character to be our height and see if their body parts are proportional to our body parts. For this particular part of the project I scaled Daisy Duck as my height (in inches). Some of her body parts were proportional and not proportional to me. I used 5 different body parts, her leg, eyeball, arm, foot, and head. It cool to see what Daisy Duck would look if she were my height! For example if Daisy Duck were my height what would the size of her eyeball be in inches. 1.5/9=x/63 is my equation. Then I found a easy-relationship , 9 goes into 63 7x. So 1.5 x 7 is 10.5 inches. Daisy Duck’s eyeball at my height is almost a foot long. Her eyeball is not proportional to my eyeball at all. In conclusion, Daisy Duck if my is not really proportional at all.
