Answer :
The diagonal of the monitor is given by
$$
d = \sqrt{290}.
$$
Evaluating the square root, we find that
$$
\sqrt{290} \approx 17.03 \text{ inches}.
$$
Since the size is measured by the diagonal rounded to the nearest whole inch, we round 17.03 to 17 inches.
Thus, the monitor has a diagonal length of 17 inches.
