A rectangle does not have a diameter, only circles or similar obects have diameters. A rectangle has a diagonal which is obtained by joining two opposite corners. Any two adjacent sides of the rectangle together with the diagonal form a right angled triangle and so the length of the diagonal can be derived using Pythagoras's theorem.
