Answer:

40 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

Given data

Diagonal = 50cm

If the length on one of the sides is 30cm

Then applying Pythagoras theorem we can find the other side as

Step two:

[tex]d^2= l^2+w^2\\\\50^2= 30^2+w^2\\\\2500=900+w^2\\\\2500-900= w^2\\\\1600=w^2\\\\[/tex]

square both sides we have

w= √1600

w= 40 cm
