This easiest way to connect the two is with an HDMI cable. Unless your laptop is really old, or was a super-budget model, it should have an HDMI output. Virtually all TVs made in the last six years or so also have HDMI ports. (The HDMI port is highlighted in red below.

Connect a laptop to TV by plugging an HDMI cable from the back of the TV to the output on your laptop.
You can alternatively use a VGA cable if your laptop or TV is too old to have an HDMI connection.
