Question from Rob: How do I calculate the height of a rectangle that has is 16:9 from only the width? For example a rectangle is 1000 wide, what is it's height if it is a 16:9 ratio? What is the formula? |
Rob,
For every 9 units of length there are 16 units of length. Divide 1000 by 9 to see how many 9 units of length there are, then multiply by 16.
