If you take the square of the long side and add it to the square of the short side, you get the diagonal (hypotenuse) squared. Then just find square root of that. For example, if short side is 3cm and long side is 4cm:
9 + 16 = 25, so the diagonal would be the square root of 25 ie. 5.
You don't - you need additional information. Many different rectangles can have the same diagonal. If you know the diagonal and one side (which must be LESS than the diagonal), you can use Pythagoras' Theorem to calculate the other side.
A 9 x 12 rectangle has a diagonal of 15.
yes if you want it to be a rectangle
The diagonal is 14.21 cm
The diagonal is 26cm
There are two of them.
A rectangle does not have a diameter, as such, but the diagonal is similar enough. If the sides of a rectangle are x cm and y cm then, using Pythagoras's theorem, the diagonal is sqrt(x2 + y2) cm.
You CAN'T calculate the perimeter of a rectangle, knowing only its diagonal. You do need some additional information about the rectangle - such as its width, or its length, or perhaps the length/width ratio.

A diagonal cannot be a side of a rectangle, and a side cannot be a diagonal.
A 9 x 12 rectangle has a diagonal of 15.

You can calculate this using the Pythagorean formula for a right triangle.
The diagonal would be 12.53 meters.
If the diagonal is 25m and the area is 168m2 then the longest edge of the rectangle will be 24m.
Yes, the diagonal of a rectangle is X.
The diagonal is 26cm
