Solution

[asy] import geometry; pair A = (-3, 4); pair B = (-3, 5); pair C = (-1, 4); pair D = (-1, 5);   pair AA = (0, 0); pair BB = (0, 1); pair CC = (2, 0); pair DD = (2, 1);     draw(D--AA,dashed);  draw(A--B); draw(A--C); draw(B--D); draw(C--D);  draw(A--AA); draw(B--BB); draw(C--CC); draw(D--DD);  // Dotted vertices dot(A); dot(B); dot(C); dot(D);    dot(AA); dot(BB); dot(CC); dot(DD);  draw(AA--BB); draw(AA--CC); draw(BB--DD); draw(CC--DD);  [/asy]

The diagonal of the box is

\begin{align*}    \sqrt{a^+b^2+c^2}&= \end{align*}
