The diameter of a rectangle is the same as its diagonal (angle in a semicircle is a right angle).
So the diagonal forms a right angled triangle with the diagonal as the hypotenuse and two sides of the rectangle (a length and a breadth) forming the legs of the triangle. If the lengths of the sides of the rectangle are known, a simple application of Pythagoras's theorem given the measure of the diagonal.

Where is the width and diameter of a rectangle?
A rectangle is an elongated square. It doesn't have a diameter; only circles have diameters.
Does a rectangle have diameter?
NO!!! Diameter refer to circles. A rectamgle has a DIAGONAL.
How do you derive of surface area of cylinder?
The surface area of a cylinder can be derived from the area of rectangle. If you 'unroll' a cylinder you have a shape of a rectangle, similar to a sheet of paper. The width of the rectangle will be the height of the cylinder and the length of the rectangle will be the circumference of the cylinder end.So, Area = length * widthwhere, width = height of cylinder & length = circumference of cylinder end = PI*(Diameter of cylinder)Therefore,surface area of a cylinder = (PI)*(diameter of cylinder)*(height of cylinder)Hope that helps!
What is the dimension of a rectangle of 14 units?
The question cannot be answered. First, there is no information as to which measure of the rectangle is 14 units: a diameter, the perimeter, the area. Second, the answer to the question above does not provide sufficient information to answer the question.
How do you find the perimeter of a rectangle with a semi circle attached to it?
add the perimeter of the rectangle, minus the side that'c covered by the semi circle. then, find the circumference of the semi circle [diameter x pi, divided by 2] and addd them together
