Use the method of Lagrange multipliers to find the dimensions of the rectangle of greatest area that can be inscribed in the ellipse \( \frac{x^{2}}{9}+\frac{y^{2}}{25}=1 \) with sides parallel to the coordinate axes. Let length be the dimension parallel to the \( x \)-axis and let width be the dimension parallel to the \( y \)-axis. Length \( = \) Width \( = \) (Type exact answers, using radicals as needed.)
