You can put this solution on YOUR website! a player catches a ball at point A, which is on the foul line 30 feet beyond 3rd base.
How far from 1st base is the player when he catches the ball ?
;
Point A is 90 + 30 = 120 ft from Home plate which is at a right angle
The distance from Point A to 1st base will be the hypotenuse (h)
:
h =
:
h = 150 ft
