Answer:

Width = 21m

Explanation:

The diagrammatical representataion of the rectangular park is as shown;

Given the following

Length = 28meters

Diagonal = 35metres

Required

Width

Using the pythagoras theorem;

[tex]\begin{gathered} 35^2=w^2+28^2 \\ w^2=35^2-28^2 \\ w^2\text{ = }1225-784 \\ w^2=441 \\ w\text{ =}\sqrt[]{441} \\ w\text{ = 21m} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence the width of the park is 21metres
