ANSWER :
Area of the rectangle is 60 cm²
EXPLANATION :
Let the Length and Breadth be l and b respectively
l-b = 7
l = 7+b......(1)
Diagonal = 13 cm
Using pythagoras theorem,
(l)²+(b)² = 13²
(7+b)²+(b)² = 13²
49+14b+b²+b² = 169
14b + 2b² = 120
2b²+14b - 120 = 0
b²+7b - 60 = 0
b=-12 or b=5
We neglect - 12 because it is negative and Breadth cannot be negative
So b=5 cm
l=7+5 = 12 cm
Area of the rectangle = lb = 12 × 5
= 60 cm²
