Question 145831: You are to run a conduit diagonally across a parking lot that is 200 ft long and 60 ft wide.How much conduit will you need to complete this run? Round your answer to tenths. Answer by nerdybill(6963) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Apply Pythagorean theorem
.
Let x = length of conduit
then
x^2 = 200^2 + 60^2
x^2 = 40000 + 3600
x^2 = 43600
x = 208.8 feet
