HDMI cable that came with the Dell monitorHDMI cable that came with the Dell monitorHDMI slot HP laptopHDMI slot HP laptopHello, posting here for a first time. I have a HP Pavilion Laptop 15-eg0040na laptop and need to connect it to an external monitor Dell P2422HE that was provided by my employer. The Dell monitor arrived with an HDMI cable (which was larger and did not fit into the HDMI slot of my HP laptop), and a USB Type-C cable.  After multiple searches online, I read that for the HP laptop I have, USB-C supports only data transfer. Hence, my only option is finding an HDMI cable. Can someone please recommend a suitable HDMI cable or adapter I can buy?
