recently my 10 yr old imac screen died but the computer is working fine as per the technician who troubleshoot the issue. How do i connect my imac to another monitor so i can use the display to use my imac and probably backup my hard drive?

iMac 27” Late 2012 (that’s a guess at the model, YMMV) supports Thunderbolt graphics output.
Connect an external display to your iMac - Apple Support

Or use Target Disk Mode to get the backup.

Or extract the disk and insert it into a USB disk sled, and use that from a replacement Mac.
