The simplest method to measure a computer monitor is with a measuring tape or a ruler. The computer or the laptop manual will mention the monitor size. Manufacturers sometimes display it on a sticker on the device.

Start at the top-left corner and extend it along the diagonal to the opposite bottom-right. If you start from the top-right corner, pull it straight to the bottom-left corner.

<h3> Note:</h3> An online search is the fastest way to find the precise size of the computer monitor. Type the make of your computer monitor or laptop and any model number that tail them in a search engine, and you will get the detailed specifications with the screen size. You can also get these details from the manufacturer’s website.

In a computer monitor, the hypotenuse is the diagonal measure that gives you the screen size. Measure the width and height of the screen, square the screen’s width and the height, and add the two numbers together. Calculate the square root of this sum to get the diagonal measurement and the screen size.
