Answer:

The diagonal of this rectangle is 41 units.

Explanation:

The relationship between the length and width of a rectangle and the diagonal is given by the Pythagorean identity:


d=√(l^2+w^2)

From, the given question, the rectangle has a width of 9 units and a length of 40 units.

We substitute the width and length of the rectangle into the equation to get:


d=√(40^2+9^2)


d=√(1600+81)


d=√(1681)


d=41 units.
