If it is pretty much square, it is 4:3.

If it is more like a wide rectangle it is 16:9 or 16:10

Measure the width and the height.  Divide the width by the height.  If 
the result is 1.7777777777777 you have a 16:9.  If the result is 
1.33333333 you have a 4:3.  If it is 1.6 you have a 16:10

You can do the same with the native resolution of the monitor.  Say it 
is
1280 x 960 then 1280/960= 1.333333333 which would indicate a 4:3 
aspect ratio.
