Answer:

Diagonal of the rectangle = 13 units   c =13

side of rectangle = 12 units         a = 12

area of the rectangle = l× b

In rectangle all the corner angle is 90 degree. A diagonal of the rectangle forms two right angle.so we use Pythagoras theorem.

formula ; a²+b²=c²    a = 12 , c = 13

             12²+b² = 13²

            144 + b² = 169

            b² = 169 - 144

                =25

b   = 5 units

a  = 12 units
