may will help....

Answer 2

Answer:

We know that if we draw the rectangle gets divided into 2 right angle triangle.

Hence, therefore the length =12cm and breadth =5cm.

Taking these dimensions, as legs we must finds hypotenuse.

therefore

${12}^{2} + {5}^{2} = {hypotneuse}^{2}$

$169 = {hypoteuse}^{2}$

therefore hypotenuse is 13cm .

therefore diagonal is 13cm
