Answer:

The  length of the diagonal have to be 43.4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

For the corner to be a right angle, the length of the diagonal must satisfy the Pythagorean Theorem

Let

x ----> the  length of the diagonal

so

[tex]x^2=27^2+34^2[/tex]

[tex]x^2=1,885\\x=43.4\ ft[/tex]

therefore

The  length of the diagonal have to be 43.4 feet
