Formula and method
This calculator computes Viewing distance, Viewing distance directly in your browser without sending data to an external server.
Mathematical formula
- Viewing distance:
diagonal × multiplier - Viewing distance:
diagonal × multiplier ÷ 12
Variables and parameters
- Screen diagonal (diagonal): default value 55 in.
- Distance multiplier (multiplier): default value 1.6 x diagonal.
Some formulas are undefined for certain input combinations (such as division by zero or logarithms of non-positive numbers). In those cases the live tool displays an alert instead of NaN.
Examples
- Example: with Screen diagonal = 55 in, Distance multiplier = 1.6 x diagonal, this calculator returns Viewing distance = 88 in, Viewing distance = 7.33 ft.
