How to Measure TV Inches

Measuring the inches of the TV is possible with the use of a roll-type tape measure. Televisions have their prices set according to features, hardware and size. A new television already comes with its size set in the box and in the manual. However, second-hand devices do not have this information - and possibly leave the owners in doubt about the size of the display. In these cases, it is possible to discover the inches of the TV using a tape measure and a simple mathematical action.

It is necessary to use the tape to measure the TV from the lower end to the opposite upper end, forming the diagonal. Just divide the angle by 2.54. The result of the mathematical operation is the size of the machine in inches. The tip also works for computer monitors. See the detailed step-by-step below.
