Boys usually increase their height up to 15/16 yrs and few later too. Our chronological age may be different to our bone age. There are standard charts and guidelines to know about bone age. As i can see that ur growth lines are open in knee xrays u have chance to increase ur height further. U may get ur height equivalent to ur father.
U shd focus on physical activities and take protein and calcium rich diet to have to maximum height achieved

Your physis are almost closing so i guess you may not grow much now half to 1 inch maximum will be your growth remaining according to me
If you keep on exercising you can get more than 1 inch growth but you may not grow more than 6 feet
