by measuring it.
If the only known fact is the length of the diagonal then the width and length of the rectangle CANNOT be determined. The diagonal could be that of a square, or of a rectangle that is very long but quite narrow. Consequently at least one more fact is required such as; the dimension of either the length or the width, or the angle that the diagonal makes to the base of the rectangle or even the area of the rectangle.
This length (diagonal) = sq.rt ( l2 + b2 ) where 'l' is length of the rectangle and 'b' is the breadth of the rectangle.
The term "length" is usually used for the rectangle's longest side.
10x2
the length of a rectangle is 8 more than the width. the area os 345 centimeters. find the length and width of the rectangle
The length and width can't be determined since it is a rectangle. A length would need to be given, or it would have to be a square.

The length of the rectangle is 18cm. The width of the rectangle is 9cm.
The length is the longest side in the rectangle.
if the length is 36 on a rectangle then what is the width of the rectangle
The width and length of a rectangle will vary depending on the size of the rectangle. The width is the shortest side of the rectangle while the length is the longest side.
This length (diagonal) = sq.rt ( l2 + b2 ) where 'l' is length of the rectangle and 'b' is the breadth of the rectangle.
A = lw Area of a rectangle = length times width
width=9 length=18
The perimeter of a rectangle is not sufficient to determine its length.
Divide the area by the length of the rectangle
It is the area of the rectangle which is length times width
