We Know, All sides of rectangle are perpendicular to each other,
By Pythagoras theorem,
Length² + breadth² = diagonal²
( 10 )² + ( 24 )² = diagonal²
=> 100 + 576 = diagonal²
=> √ 676 = diagonal
=> 26 = diagonal
Length of diagonal= 26 cm

Using Pythagoras' theorem:
a² + b² = c²
Find Diagonal:
10² + 24² = c²
c² = 676
c = √676
c = 26
Answer: 26 cm
