EKG examples
EKG below demonstrates R in V5 is 26mm, S in V1 in 15mm. The sum is 41 mm which is more than 35 mm and therefore LVH is present according to the Sokolow-Lyon criteria.
EKG below demonstrates left ventricular hypertrophy according to the Sokolow-Lyon criteria

EKG below is an another example of extreme left ventricular hypertrophy in a patient with severe aortic valve stenosis

EKG of a patient with LVH and subendocardial ischemia leading to positive cardiovascular markers in blood testing

EKG below shows features of Left ventricular hypertrophy in individual lead

EKG BELOW shows sinus rhythm with P waves that are terminally negative in V1 which is suggestive of left atrial abnormality. There is a tall R wave in V5 greater than 30 mm., a deep S wave greater than 30 mm. in V2, and an R wave in lead II greater than 20mm. There are diffuse ST/T wave changes. All of these finding suggest left ventricular hypertrophy. This woman in fact has IHSS.
