Answer:
Let the length of the shorter side be x m....
Then the diagonal is ( x + 60 ) m and longer side is ( x + 30 ) m.........
By Pythagoras theorem...we know that......
x² + (x+30)² = (x+60)²
=> x²+x²+900+60x = x²+3600+120x
=> x² - 60x - 2700
=> x² + 30x - 90x - 2700
=> x(x+30) -90(x+30)
=> (x-90) (x+30)
Therefore x = +90 and x = -30
As the length can't be negative.....
Hence the length of the sides are...
shorter = 90m
longer = 120m
diagonal = 150m
This is your required answer.....
