What is the Standard height to mount plasma TV?

There is no standard height for mounting television screens. When mounting screens, look at the eye height of the people who will be viewing it: this will mean you need to consider the type of seating to be used. Sofas, couches and armchairs can be quite low. Set the screen so that two thirds of the screen is below the eye height of the people viewing it. This means they will not need to crane their necks back to look straight at the screen, for comfort. Look also at the distance the screen will be viewed from. A screen that is viewed from close by will need to be at a similar height to the viewer, compared with one at a great distance, because the angle at which it is viewed is more important than the height. (Over a greater distance the angle can remain unchanged, but the height changes)


What is the most exspensive tv?

There can be no definitive answer to the question as there is always a more expensive solution for a customer who has enough money. The large LED arena and stadium screens are among the most expensive with price tags of $2,000,000 to $6,000,000 for the largest sizes produced. However, these are modular displays. Each module is typically 18 inches square. Add more modules to the height and width and you have an even bigger television at an even higher price.


If the diagonal measurement is 15 inches what is the length and height of a rectangle?

The answer can not be calucalted without additional information. If you only know the diagnol measurement, there are an infinite number of possible lengths for the adjoining sides. If this is a question regarding the sizing of TV screens, there are two current formats: standard, where the length to height ratio is 4:3; and letterbox (or widescreen) where the length to height ration is 16:9. Using these ratios and the diagnol length, you can calculate the length and height measurements by establishing: Length = 1.3333 * Height Then: (Diagonal)^2 = (Height)^2 + (1.3333 * Height)^2
