the best formula trick for the line height: 

if your font size is 16 make 24 line height. 

of course it matters what’s the weight and in general how typeface is designed but it works 99%

Said otherwise, a line height set to 150% the font size is a good benchmark for body copy. 

This creates a flexible base for your type system that can adapt to different font sizes and screens.

Line height, or leading, is not dependent on the typeface; It’s set by the graphics software.

Each letter has built in anatomy that’s covering the space above and bottom part in short words. Then you manipulate values in Figma for example where you have auto to be default or you can change it to whatever.
