Answer:the length of the diagonal is 31.6 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle formed by the length, width and diagonal of the rectangle is a right angle triangle.

To determine the length of the diagonal, d, we would apply Pythagoras theorem which is expressed as

Hypotenuse^2 = opposite side ^2 + adjacent side^2

From the information given

Opposite side = W = 10 units

Adjacent side = L = 30 units

Hypotenuse = diagonal = d units

Therefore,

d^2 = 10^2 + 30^2

d^2 = 100 + 900

d^2 = 1000

d = √1000

d = 31.6 units
