The Height of a Christmas Tree Topper calculator computes the appropriate height of the ornament or angel to go on top of a Christmas Tree based on the height of the tree.
INSTRUCTIONS: Choose units and enter the following:
- (h) Height of Christmas Tree
Tree Topper Height (TTH): The calculator returns the height in inches. However this can be automatically converted to compatible units via the pull-down window.
The Math / Science
Mathematicians at the University of Sheffield have developed equations for the perfect tree trimming. Based on the height of the tree they can calculate the optimum number of ornaments and lengths of garland and lights.
The formula for the ideal height of a Christmas Tree Topper is:
TTH = h/10
where:
- TTH = Christmas Tree Topper Height
- h = height of Christmas Tree
This equation calculates the best approximate height of a tree topper, usually a star or an angel, given the height of the tree.
