Math Alert - Ratios to calculate distance

After some further testing, I figure this warrants a subject header of its own, as it's going to be a bit lengthy by internet standards. I was able to calculate the ratio of what I'll term MabiMeters. Basically, I took a screenshot of the distance of a known airplane throw. I then used Photoshop's measuring tool to calculate the same distance in pixels. This number can then be converted to a ratio via the equation: 1 / (PixelLength / AirplaneDistance). We'll call this number "the ratio".

Now, for any given distance measured by the ruler with an angle at 90 degrees from the original angle of the airplane, you can calculate the distance of an unknown object in the same screenshot. To do this, simply multiply the distance, in pixels, by "the ratio". This will give you the distance in MabiMeters. Just carry lots of paper. Took me just short of 3000 sheets to do all of this. However, this is how I know that the fences near the healer's house in Tir Chonaill are precisely 3.7911627606976744... meters long. The town square in Tir Chonaill is 13.058... meters, or 1305 Distance (centimeters). By compensating properly for the angle, you can also measure that Trefor is half an inch over being 6 foot tall, possibly because he's wearing boots. An average 11-year old Elven female is about 4'8'' to 4'10'' when barefooted, depending on the hair. Predictably, pet altitude uses the same measurement as paper airplanes, so you can use pets as a way of measuring distance in height.

So, there you have it, a way of determining height and distance. I'm not sure whether I should edit the wiki page or not, though. It's here for anyone who wants to find it. I'm off to buy more paper!
