Answer:

[tex]52m[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the diagonal since drawing a diagonal across a rectangle results in two right angle triangles.

Length of diagonal [tex]= \sqrt{20^2+48^2}[/tex] (The length of the diagonal can be thought of as the hypotenuse of one of the right angle triangles)

[tex]=\sqrt{2704}[/tex]

[tex]=52 m[/tex]

∴ The length of the diagonal is [tex]52 m[/tex]

Hope this helps :)
