I think all you need is USB-C to HDMI cable.

A dock would allow you to keep the iPad charged, which USB-C to HDMI would not. Just depends on your use case if you want that or not.
But for that kind of price I’d consider just getting an Apple TV and using AirPlay.

I'm with #3 on opting for AppleTV but then a dock vs. a cable. Among other things, a good dock choice can work with MB too when on the go. A multi-port dock (just one of many examples) can get upwards of ALL of the common-use ports still actively used in 2024 in one little package, so you can connect to about anything. I use one like that with both iPad and MB regularly.

That's how I do it. With the MKB, I can charge through it when using the USB-C port with the HDMI cable.

If you have a Smart TV and want to stream your iPad content to it, instead of connecting it with a USB-C to HDMI cable, you can use AirPlay.
