A 1600 pixel by 900 pixel display is generated on 14 in diag

A 1600 pixel by 900 pixel display is generated on 14 in diagonal monitor. How many pixels are there on the 14 in diagonal? Hint: Think of properties of right triangles.

Solution

Let Horizontal pixel (x) = 1600

Vertical pixel (y) = 900

Diagonal pixels = D =?

According to the properties of triangle (D) =Square root of (x^2+y^2)

=Square root of (1600^2+900^2)

=Square root of(2560000+810000)

=Square root of(3370000)

=1835.8 Pixels
