Answer: Another golden rectangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is a rectangle, cutting the largest possible square from one end, the remaining piece of the rectangle can either be a square or a rectangle

The remaining piece of the golden rectangle will therefore be another golden rectangle.
