Here, we want to find the diagonal of the given solid
To do this, we need the appropriate triangle
Firstly, we need the diagonal of the base
To get this, we use Pythagoras' theorem for the base
The other measures are 6 mm and 8 mm
According ro Pythagoras' ; the square of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the squares of the two other sides
Let us have the diagonal as l
Mathematically;
Now, to get the diagonal, we use the triangle with height 5 mm and the base being the hypotenuse we calculated above
Thus, we calculate this using the Pytthagoras' theorem as follows;
Since rectangle ABCD is similar to HGFE, the ratios of the lengths of their corresponding sides are equal. We can infer form our picture that AD is corresponding to EH and DC is corresponding to HG, so lets find the ratios of those corresponding sides and establish a proportion to find the length of HG:
We know that
, 
, and 
, so lets replace those values in our proportion:
We can conclude that the length of the segment HG is 9.
We know that
We can conclude that the length of the segment HG is 9.
