Use z scores to compare the given values. The tallest living man at one time had a height of 245 cm. The shortest living man at that time had a height of 120.7 cm. Heights of men at that time had a mean of 172.31 cm and a standard deviation of 6.66 cm. Which of these two men had the height that was more extreme? Since the z score for the tallest man is z= and the z score for the shortest man is z=. the V man had the height that was more extreme. (Round to two decimal places.)
