Ignoring screen size for the moment, when comparing a monitor
that is 1920 x 1080 (16:9 ratio) to a monitor that is 1920 x
1200 (16:10 ratio), the monitor that is "1080" will have 10%
less vertical lines of pixels (120 of them) than the monitor
that is "1200". Additionally, assuming the two monitors to have
exactly the same diagonal dimension and that the pixels are
exactly square (not always quite true), the "1080" monitor would
be very slightly wider and somewhat less tall than the "1200"
monitor. Specifically, assuming both monitors to have exactly
22-inch screens, measured diagonally, and, again, assuming the
pixels to be exactly square, you would have: - A 1920 x 1080
monitor whose screen would be 19.175 inches wide by 10.786
inches tall, 206.813 square inches and 10,026.45 pixels per
square inch; or, - a 1920 x 1200 monitor whose screen would be
18.656 inches wide by 11.660 inches tall, 217.528 square inches
and 10,591.74 pixels per square inch. Essentially, the "1080"
monitor would appear very slight l
