43 Inch TV Dimensions: Width, Height & Viewing Distance
43″ TV = 37.5″ × 21.1″
A 43-inch TV has a screen about 37.5 inches wide and 21.1 inches tall (95.2 × 53.6 cm).
Step by step
- For 16:9, width = diagonal × 16 ÷ √(16² + 9²) = 43 × 0.8716 = 37.48 in.
- Height = diagonal × 9 ÷ √337 = 43 × 0.4903 = 21.08 in.
- Add about 1–3 inches each way for the frame and stand.
43-inch TVs are a common choice for bedrooms and smaller living rooms. A 43″ screen has 61% of the area of a 55″ TV.

How it works
TV sizes are the diagonal of the visible screen, not the width. Because almost all TVs are 16:9, width and height follow directly from the diagonal. Screen area grows with the square of the size, so a 75-inch TV has nearly twice the picture of a 55-inch. Manufacturers list exact dimensions with and without the stand — check them before buying furniture or a wall mount.
