In rectangle $ABCD$, diagonal $AC$ is met by the angle bisector from $B$ at $B'$ and the angle bisector from $D$ at $D'$. Diagonal $BD$ is met by the angle bisector from $A$ at $A'$ and the angle bisector from $C$ at $C'$. The area of quadrilateral $A'B'C'D'$ is $\frac{9}{16}$ the area of rectangle $ABCD$. What is the ratio of the longer side and shorter side of rectangle $ABCD$?
