    37=c

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We can find this by using the Pythagorean theorem

    The width and the lengths are the legs of the triangle. The diagonal is the hypotenuse.

    a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

    20^2 + 36^2 = c^2

    400 + 1296 = c^2

    1336 = c^2

    Take the square root of each side

    sqrt (1336) = sqrt (c^2)

    Since c has to be positive since it is a length

    36.55133377 = c

    Rounding to the nearest foot

    37=c
