Step-by-step explanation:
Consider a rectangle ABCD
LET AB Be the length and BC be the breadth
AB=30+BC
Now the diagona AC is hypotenuse
AC²=AB²+BC²
(60+BC)²=(30+BC)²+BC²
3600+BC²+120BC=900+BC²+60BC+BC²
On solving
BC²-60BC-2700=0
BC²-90BC+30BC-2700 =0
BC(BC-90)+30(BC-90)=0
BC=90m or - 30m(NA)
AB=120m

Consider a Rectangle ABCD
Let the shorter be x
Diagonal= (60+x)
length= (x+30)
Now the diagonal BD is hypotenus
( BD )² = ( AB)² +( AD )²
(60+x)²= (x+30)² + x²
60² + x²+ 2× 60×x.
x²-60-2700=0
x²-90x+ 30x-2700
x(x-90) +30(x-90)
(x-90). (x+30)
x=90. x=-30
x(90+30)
x=120
