16:9 screen size chart

Direct answer: A 16:9 screen's width equals its diagonal multiplied by 16 and divided by √337; height uses the same formula with 9. The figures below describe the visible rectangular panel only. They exclude bezels, stands, curved-panel geometry and manufacturer rounding.

How was this chart calculated?

width = diagonal × 16 / sqrt(16² + 9²); height = diagonal × 9 / sqrt(16² + 9²). Values are calculated from aspect-ratio geometry, not copied from manufacturer specifications. Inch values are rounded to two decimals; centimeter values to one decimal.

What should you verify before buying?

Use the exact model's specification for chassis width, stand footprint, wall-mount pattern and usable viewing area. Two products with the same advertised diagonal can have different external dimensions.
