Do Pythagorean Theorem because a rectangle divided in diagonals form right triangles
A^2+b^2=C^2
Plug in the correct numbers and solve
A and B can be switched around but C is always the longest diagonal side which is called the hypotenuse not the Adjacent sides that form a right angle
So with correct solving you should get 5.
