You need to connect a computer to a modern high-definition television. Which of the following interfaces is the most common choice for transmitting both high-definition video and audio over a single cable?
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the correct choice as it is the industry standard for connecting consumer electronics like televisions, and it is designed to transmit both high-definition video and digital audio over a single cable. DisplayPort also supports HD video and audio but is more common on PCs and computer monitors than on televisions. VGA is an older, analog standard that does not transmit audio and generally supports lower resolutions. DVI is primarily a video-only digital interface and does not typically carry audio signals.
