Let's begin by listing out the information given to us:

This is a rectangle. A rectangle has its opposite sides congruent and adjacent sides form a right angle

Width (W) = 53 in,

Length (l) = 29 in

We will calculate the diagonal of the rectangle using the Pythagoras Theorem as shown below:

d² = 53² + 29²

d² = 2809 + 894 = 3650

d² = 3650

We take the square of both sides we have:

d = 60.415 ≈ 60.42

d = 60.42
