To calculate the diagonal of the iPad screen, we can use the Pythagorean theorem.

Let's call the diagonal length of the iPad screen "d".
Using the Pythagorean theorem: d^2 = 10^2 + 7^2
Simplifying: d^2 = 100 + 49
d^2 = 149
d ≈ √149
d ≈ 12.2 inches

Therefore, the diagonal length of the iPad screen is approximately 12 inches.
