Stats for a full-frame 35mm camera, taken from lens manufacturers' spec sheets.

Now, those are presumably across a circular diameter (ie. the diagonal of a frame).

For a 3m wide backdrop, your hypotenuse in 3:2 aspect ratio is sqrt(13), or 3.6m.

Now use some trig to convert those angles into 3.6m.
