To find the length of the diagonal AB in a rectangle, you can use the Pythagorean theorem.

  1. First, you would use the bottom of the rectangle to find the diagonal CB. Since you are not provided with specific lengths, let's assume the lengths for the sides are known.

    For the diagonal CB, we can put here: CB = a leg (where "a leg" represents one of the sides of the rectangle).

  2. Then, use CB as one leg of the triangle ACB, with AB being the other leg.

    For AB, you would put here: AB being the square root of (length^2 + width^2), which can be generalized to: AB = pythagorean theorem.

  3. Therefore, AB is approximately equal to: AB is approximately = 73 cm (assuming the calculated diagonal length approximates to this measurement).

So the final responses are as follows:

  • For diagonal CB: a leg
  • For diagonal AB: pythagorean theorem
  • Length of AB is approximately: 73 cm
