You do a^2 x b^2 = c^2 where a=the base, b= the height and c=the diagonal.
More info: take the square of "a" and the square of "b" and multiply them together, then take your answer and find the square root of it, that is "c" (the diagonal).

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
