How these values are derived

computed from the basic profile

These figures follow the Unified basic profile of ASME B1.1. A 60° basic profile has a fundamental triangle height H = 0.866025 × P, with pitch diameter d₂ = d − 0.649519 × P, external minor diameter d₃ = d − 1.226869 × P and internal minor diameter D₁ = d − 1.082532 × P; the two minor diameters differ because the external root is rounded while the internal crest is truncated. The recommended tap drill is given as nominal diameter minus pitch, which approximates 75% thread engagement — adjust it for tough materials or deep holes.
