A 55-inch screen has a diagonal of 1.397 m. Its width and height depend on its aspect ratio. A television’s external dimensions also include the frame and stand, so check the product specification for those measurements.
60 × 0.0254 = 1.524 m. If the measurement is written as 5 feet, first calculate 5 × 12 = 60 inches. The input accepts decimal numbers; for 12½ inches, enter 12.5.
