GET THE LONGEST measuring tape you can find, wrap it AROUND the entite TV at the thickest point. Then take that number, divide it into 124.573, take THAT sum and multiply it with the square root, subtract it by 76, if you get an odd number, add 3, if you get an even number, subtract 12.

you measure diagonally across the screen. That's because the average tv screen is concave and not flat. The practice of measuring a cathode ray tube screen diagonally is also used to measure the screen size of computer displays.

From one corner to the opposite...like upper left to bottom right...that measurement will give you the size of the screen.

because tvs are 32" class no longer 32". which skill their measurements are closest to 32". there are a generic quantity of tvs dimensions like 27, 32, 36, 40 etc. and all it has to do is be closest to that measurement to be able to be categorised as such
