Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonal of this rectangular box serves as the hypotenuse of the 2 right triangles that exist within this rectangle. The length is one leg, the hypotenuse is...well, the hypotenuse, so we need to use Pythagorean's Theorem to find the missing leg.

$x^2=36$ so

x = 6. The width is 6.
