Thanks for your time.
Here is what I can simply remember for the future,
4:3 has a height of .6 x the diagonal, and a 16:9
has a height just slight less than .5 of the diagonal.

Thanks for this. I have been known to be able to come up with the complicated answer while the simple one eludes me. That is an excellent summary!

A good answer is easier with a clear question giving the make and model of everything.
