width = w
\n" ); document.write( "length = w + 1\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "w^2 + (w + 1)^2 = 36
\n" ); document.write( "2w^2 + 2w - 35 = 0\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "w = (sqrt(71) - 1)/2
\n" ); document.write( "length = (sqrt(71) + 1)/2
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
