What area of skin is on the human body?

[frail kiln]

Hey, so I have to do this assignment test for school and here are the details of the test, can someone please help?

1. Do not ping the Moderators, unless someone is breaking the rules.
2. Do not ping the Helper Moderators, unless there is a conflict between helpers.
3. Do not ping other members randomly for help.
4. Ask your question and show the work you've done so far. If you've posted a screenshot of a question, specify which part you need help with.
5. Wait patiently for a helper to come along.
6. If the Helper has answered your question, remember to thank them with the Mathematics Ranks bot and close the thread with:

+close
Feel free to nominate the person for helper of the week in #helper-nominations
If you're happy with the help you got here, and the server overall, you can contribute financially as well:

Here is the work ive done so far:

Here are the details with a better view:

I need help with figuring out how I am able to calculate the entire surface area of the human body.

This includes the ears, hands, legs, feet, torso, and much more. As well as all the complex shapes

[vital briar]

Is this a test?

[frail kiln]

Yes

But

Its an assignment

You know the test is too hard when they allow you to use all devices

And give you 3 days to complete it

[vital briar]

We aren't alllowed to help in an ongoing test

[frail kiln]

Its an assignment

Im allowed to take it home

It goes like this:

1 question

3 days

All devices allowed

Leaving the room is allowed

Taking it home is allowed

Working in a group is allowed

Asking for help is allowed

Split the body parts

[frail kiln]

Ye, I need to split the body shapes into geometrical shapes, but some of the shapes are like really hard, such as an ear which I am guessing consists out of an ellipse, but there is also the inside which is more difficult. I can say that the fingers consist of cylinders and half spheres, but the hand itself I am not sure.

Furthermore, there is also the nose.

Well nobody is helping ig.

Hi, so what model of the human body are you considering

[frail kiln]

Any model, a regular human body. Can be any human body. Consider it a human body with a healthy BMI score.

[inner python]

Ah I'm a bit late, what I meant by an model is how are you "approximating" a structure of the human body

Like cylinders and spheres stacked or what

[frail kiln]

I need to use 2 methods to calculate the surface area of the human body. The first method I have is the use of geometrical shapes. I do not know what can be the second method.

[inner python]

Uh

Okay anyways did you compute it by the first method

We can worry about the second one later

[frail kiln]

Ye almost finished that.

Wait this got me thinking. Cant I just use BSA as the second method?

[inner python]

What is BSA

[north drum]

Make them a tight body suit

[frail kiln]

First method im using is geometrical shapes. Second method might be using toilet paper on the human body, calculating the surface area of 1 individual toilet paper, counting how many toilet paper there are and multiplying that number by the surface area of a toilet paper. This will give the surface area of that human body.
