I think you will find that 60 refers to a 60 inch diameter (5 feet)
60/2 x 60/2 x pi ie 900pi sq in.
the diameter of a circle that is 60 is 60 radius is 30 the circumference is 188.46
Would that be 60 inches across for a 60 inch diameter?
The radius of a circle is half of its diameter. Therefore, if the diameter of the circle is 60 inches, the radius would be half of 60, which is 30 inches. The formula to find the radius from the diameter is: radius = diameter / 2.
5 feet = 60 inches
If the table is 60 inches across, the diameter is 60 inches.
900
60/2 x 60/2 x pi ie 900pi sq in.
Well honey, if the diameter of that table is 60 inches, then the circumference would be about 188.5 inches. Just take that diameter, multiply it by pi (which is approximately 3.14159), and you've got your answer. Now go impress your friends with your newfound knowledge, you sassy thing!
the diameter of a circle that is 60 is 60 radius is 30 the circumference is 188.46
Table linen size will depend on the drop you need. For a 5 foot diameter (60 inch) ROUND table and using a 90 inch ROUND tablecloth your drop would be 15 inches all around the table. For a 5 foot diameter (60 inch) SQUARE table and using a 85 inch SQUARE tablecloth your drop would be 12 and a half inches all around.
The answer depends on how much you want your "table topper" to hang over the edge of the table. If you want 6 inches of over-hang, then you would double 6 inches to have 12 inches of over-hang then add that to the diameter of your table: 12 + 60 = 72 inches of total "table topper".
diameter = 60/pi
Would that be 60 inches across for a 60 inch diameter?
Assuming you are talking about a 60" diameter table and a regular octagon (regular being of equal sides) you would need a room that is 60" across. If you wanted chairs, add 30".
For a Rectangle table: Measure the width and length of your table, then subtract those numbers from the width and length of the tablecloth and then divide by 2. For a Round table: Measure your table at its widest, then subtract from the tablecloth diameter and then divide by 2. Example: Your table is a 60" round. The tablecloth is a 90" round. 90"-60"=30" 30" divided by 2=15" 15" the drop around the table!
A circle with a circumference of 60 feet has a diameter of: 19.1 feet
