39. Measure how far the person has jumped

40. Get the person to jump with swinging his arms at 90 degrees and bend his knees at 60 degrees.

41. Measure how far the person has jumped

42. Repeat each jump 5 times

43. Tabulate all the data into a table

44. Calculate the average of the 5 jumps

 Risk and Safety: Identify any potential risks and safety precautions to be taken.

1. Tripping over shoelaces (Tie shoelaces very tightly)

2. Spraining ankle after jump (Land properly)

3. Hitting something mid-jump (Remove all nearby obstacles)

Data Analysis: 

1. Set up a table to compare the results

2. Take the average of the 5 jumps and input it into the table

3. Draw a graph with the y-axis as Jump Distance and the x-axis as Angle of Arm Swing & Knees Bent

4. Compare and analyze the data before deciding the best combination of arm swing and bending of knees to jump during standing broad jump

5. Therefor, the best combination of arm swing and bending of knees would result in the furthest distance jumped
