Zoom Rooms splitting screen

My office has a number of small conference rooms or personal work spaces set up as Zoom rooms, each with a desktop console and a mounted TV/display on the wall for use in the room. 

 

I want to use the mounted display in a Zoom room as a second screen for my laptop, not as a duplicate of my laptop's single (small) screen. Am I just really dense in that I can't figure out how to do this? That seems like a really obvious, high-demand use case, and something that other (not Zoom) solutions solved literally a decade+ ago.

Thanks - and just to clarify, you still have to start screen sharing mode on the tabletop control unit and use a wired connection to the laptop before using Windows+P. I was trying to do it via wireless connection (i.e. WIndows+K to cast) and that doesn't appear to be supported by Zoom, although that feature's been around for a decade+ in Windows. So, not exactly what I would prefer, but functional. thx.
