hey user!!

your answer is here...

given the length of the rectangle 45ft and diagonal is 53ft

width = x feet

by Pythagoras thereom :-

diagonal² = length² + width²

53² = 45² + width²

2809 - 2025 = width²

784 = width²

width = √784

width = 28ft

hence, correct option Is a.28ft, the width of the rectangle is 28ft

cheers!!
