What is Pythagoras?

A fundamental relationship in Euclidean geometry between a right triangle's three sides is known as the Pythagorean theorem, or Pythagoras' theorem. The area of the square whose side is the hypotenuse is said to be equal to the total of the areas of the squares on the other two sides.

According to the given information:

the Hight of the rectangle = 18 inches

the angle it form sinθ = H/P

H = 18

P =

cosθ = 48

cosθ = H/P

cosθ =18/P

P = 18/cosθ

 = 29.60

= 27

The length of the diagonal of the canvas = 27 inches.
